New gaming build

[Liampope]

Sounds fine.

But Stulid's spec above got you 2x 6870, SSD, decent keyboard and mouse for less. Much better performance for less. I know where my money would go .

i ended up getting the following build :

intel i7 930
6gb corsair 1600Mhz ram
gigabyte ga-x58-usb3.0 mobo
everest 1010W PSU
Xigmatek midgard case
Total £630

I need to get a new GPU and a CPU cooler.

thinking of getting dual 6870 or mayb hold off with my 4850 to wait until the GTX570 / GTX560 / HD69** series are out

Looks ok, PSU overkill.

CPU cooler: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-010-TI&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=1395

Highly rated and recommended - Slightly more than some other CPU coolers, but certainly worth the extra if you're planning to overclock. Also if you're going to wait around for a bit for Graphics Cards the extra hopefully shouldn't be too big a deal
