I was looking through the bundles on here and this one caught my eye .
"Krypton Ankylosaur MKII" Intel Core i7 2600K 3.40GHz @ 4.60GHz Overclocked Bundle - Asus Extreme

Any Good ??

What graphics cards to go for if i did get this bundle Is it a sli board and crossfire ?
What psu to go for ?

I dont know that much thats why i thought about the bundle and ask you guys as i want to build my own for gaming .

Thanks

well i dont really have a budget just want a good pc for gaming where i dont get fps lag and can play all the new games at full spec. If i can do it for up to around 700 i would be happy at that But if need to it would be more . But also i want it so it will be just as good for some years with new games ect that come out .

So that one you posted . what would suit me for graphics cards . what should i go for ?
Ive got every thing to get yet also case ,psu . so if you have any ideas would be great.

Thanks for your help ;-)

How easy is the overclocking as i really dont know how its done . All them listed above are not done unlike the bundle so is it easy to do ?

hi thanks yes im not up for the messing, so as long as it will run games like cod4 ,black ops and even the old mohaa a breeze im ok . I run a few game servers so its mainly for all them . My old pc is years old and really struggles , so im looking to build some thing that can do them kind of games with great graphics at ease .

Hi well all the stuff came today i built it but i have one problem ..
It keeps crashing and i get a blue screen with error 0x00000124

i reinstaled win 7 as i thought it may be that . ran great for a hr then crashed again . any ideas .
thanks

gkdestroyer · 6 Apr 2011 at 22:54

all that above and the win7. But I think i may have found the problem..my monitor is very old . so ive just put it in to a new one and it has not done it so far . Im thinking its that . fingers crossed

gkdestroyer · 6 Apr 2011 at 23:31

well I thought it was the monitor but it's just happened on the newer one I have .

Ive turned off oc genie its ran ok for some time now .

gkdestroyer · 7 Apr 2011 at 10:23

well it's been running fine now with out the oc genie so I'm just going to leave it. It does every thing I need . runs the games I need fine .
Thanks
