hmm, i don't know about the powersupply, but with an overclock like that why buy a quadcore?.. the thing that really makes the difference (in games) is a top notch graphics card.. (i'm playin call of duty 4 in best graphics, on a single core processor, because i've got a x1950)... personally i'd wait for the pci e 2.0 motherboards to come out and see what they're like...

yeah but i could still get a point of view GTX and wait for the pci 2.0 Board am just not sure what to do

go sli..?

buy an sli motherboard, and get another gts.. i'm sure that 2x gts would beat a gtx?

had sli in past plus don't like the 680i chipset i was just wanting to overhall my cpu and gfx and maybe ram at a later date as am using vista with only 2gb even though everything plays fine
