overkill on the graphics card, just get the non ultra version and clock it

and the PSU also, you can get away with less.. corsair 520/620 is the flavour of the month on the forums.


what monitor are you running ?

Yep the graphics is abit overkill. The PSU has had some very good reviews.

Thinking of hooking it all up to a either:

1. LG L194WT 19" Widescreen LCD Monitor
or
2. BenQ FP222WH - 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor
