Hi guys.I am finally going to build a new pc.
Here's my choice of potential hardware.
I already have windows 7.
First thing i need help with is, what graphics card to get.I want to pay up to £150.I was thinking of the Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5850 Extreme.I want to do some photoshop, some gaming and watch hd video.Any suggestions please ?
Is the AX750 enough power ?
Not sure if i need a sound card, the motherboard says it has 'THX TruStudio PRO'.I don't know if a sound card would still be an improvement ? If it was, what would you recommend ? Will be used for music,cds.Also it will be plugged into my Onkyo and surround sound speakers.My suggestion, Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium.
Which thermal compound, IC Diamond 24-Carat or Arctic Silver 5 ?
Anything i have missed or you would change?
Thank you
