Need a few upgrades, and after some suggestions.
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-196-SP&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1434 must be included in the price (only 1) since i have one allready and plan to crossfire them.

I need a new mobo that supports the C2D E6750 and would like it to support C2Q, must support DDR2 and also crossfire.

Want a new monitor, 23" or more currently looking at http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-043-AC&groupid=17&catid=1425&subcat=

After a new gaming keyboard.

I would say my budget in total is around £350-£400

Agree with the above apart from the keyboard, get a G15.

I allready have a 4770, and from all the reviews ive read 2 of them in crossfire beats a 4890 and costs less so i might as well go down that route. I like yours siumatfung but will probally have to change the monitor or keyboard, cause i would go over budget with the card.

This motherboard does support crossfire right? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-341-AS&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=1155
