Hi there,

This build will primarily be used for gaming, WoW, Cod MW2 etc. I don't do any video converting or anything but I obviously want a fairly punchy machine, loading programs quickly etc.

I chose the 5770 Vapor X as I read that they're very good cards, I also thought the 5850 might not be worth the £70 additional cost.

The case came standard with 4 fans hence why I chose it. I don't know about AMD Chips so thought to be safe I would get a CPU Cooler with a good reputation.

Any Critism would be appreciate :)

Thanks :)

This is the updated Spec .. Any other recommendations?? Will the CPU Cooler and Motherboard be okay?

and why buy the expensive 5770

they all perform the same, except for the 512mb version.

also as long as you know that that motherboard is pants at crossfire, it runs the second slot at a reduced speed, with the money saved from the cheaper cpu, this motherboard will do a proper 16/16 lane crossfire experience

might be handy in the future? if you want a chaep graphics boost, just add a second card.

Ahh didn't know about the Crossfire, but that Isn't an Issue - Also with the 5770, I've actually found that card, but the Overclocked Version on a competitors site, just thought I'de add it to the list for reference though.
