Right - lots of browsing later...I'm pretty sure I want to go NVidia single GPU and am trying to choose a GTX.
Thinking either BFG GTX 260 OCX or BFG GTX 285 OC. Advice? Gonna be on a 24" sammy LCD.
Am sold on the i7 but not sure about the mobo. What are the differences between the Gigabyte ex58-ud4 and the P6T Deluxe? Also, what is the difference between P6T and P6T Deluxe - have read the specs but don't know what the real world differences mean.
The RAM i have chosen is too fast for 920 i think but it's on offer at the same price as slower model - thoughts? Don't yet understand if i need faster RAM if i wanna overclock - which i do, or if there is a hardware limit in the 920 that makes it a waste of money getting faster model.
Love the look of the red PC Power quad crossfire PSU - sorry for being dumb but what's the difference between that and the quad SLI version that comes in black? Presumably must be compatible with nvidia & ati - it's just power isn't it?!?!?
Will the case fit this setup inside and do i need any additional fans in addition to those that come with the case?
Mainly going to be used for Lock On, Black Shark, FSX, Call of Duty and maybe Crysis.
Can't quite bring myself to pull the trigger on this purchase until i'm sure on the GFX card and mobo decisions.
Can anyone tell me how to screenshot my whole basket? I tried but only got half of it because i'm on a laptop, so need to scroll to see it all.
