Hey Guys...

Im toying with the idea to build a new desktop.
Going to go with:
Cpu - Core i5 760
Mobo - Asus P7P55D-E Pro
Ram - Corsair Dominator 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800
Case - Corsair 600t

I think I will keep my old PSU for awhile to save a bit of cash, and upgrade it later.

The main thing is I have a 8800 GTS x2 so in SLI.
Should I keep them until I can afford something nice, or shell out for a 460 or so?

Im really trying to keep costs as low as possible.

Then in the future im gonna get a Corsair AX850w PSU, new GPU, new HDD (SSD one)
 
Might as well keep them for as long as they serve you well so that when you do upgrade, you'll get the most out of whatever money you want to spend. Make sure that motherboard can do SLI though.
 
How much is the pro out of interest (best not mention where though)? There's the MSI GD65 and GD80 that also do SLI and are pretty cheap.
 
Well if you can wait, wait and see what happens. Current stuff may get cheaper, or the new stuff may be great value. Nothing to lose waiting unless you need to buy right now.
