Need Help Please =)

[max76249]

OK. I'm planning to get the:

Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4850 X2 1024MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - Retail

for my gaming PC, but I am unsure about two things, and I would like to ask for some expert advice.

What kind of PSU and Case will I need to both power and hold these GPU's.

At the moment, i've selected:

OCZ ModXStream Pro 600w Silent SLI Ready ATX2 Modular Power Supply

and I am completely unsure about the case.

Suggestions please =)

Also, on the subject of cooling, would I need to water cool these GPU's, or would a very well fan-cooled case be enough.

whats your budget for case and psu?
air cooling is fine, just a little noisier, but a proper WC set up ramps the cost up considerably

Yh, I did want to try and avoid WC. Hm, budget not too high, about £150 for both if that's possible. The less the better =)

Any suggestions???

one very popular choice for a budget case is the coolermaster 690, it costs about £60 but has enough space to house a big card and offers descent cooling.

case: antec 300 £45
PSU: BeQuiet 550W £84
thats less than £130, the antec is great case will fit most gfx cards without problem, you may want to purchase a couple of extra optional fans to improve the cooling
