Hi guys, I wonder if you can help me. Building a new pc, I think I have sorted out the specs, but just wondering if I can get someone to look over it, and double check the compnants. Pc will be used for gaming and flight simming, so good framerates is a must. My budget is £1400 The specs at mo are

And phenom 11 x4 965.
Asus m4a79xtd evo
Samsung hd103sj spinpoint f3 1tb 7200rpm x 2
Ati hd5870. **
Geil ultra 4gb pc3-17000 2133mhz**
Coolermaster cm690 -
Hi power 1000w *psu
Microsoft buis pack key/mouse
Corsair cwch50-1 Water cooling
2 x 23" monitors

only things I'm not sure off is the motherboard and memory

considering the Asus fx version though I understand the only difference is ability to take quad gpus instead of duels.

Planning to oc CPU to 3.8 ghz. And memory to 1600 or 1800 though not sure what sort of gps increase if any that would bring.

All advice on this setup would be greatfully recived.

Hey guys thanks for your ideas, the psu is from hi power, budget I know but it has all the correct connections and very good reviews. As to the CPU, to be honest, I'm looking at 3ghz + as basic speed. For some reason it seems fsx prefere a faster ghz so as and runs at 3.6 out of box and intel is only 2.6 then I went with amd. However looking at the comments, I'm starting to get impression I may be focusing on the wrong stats here, so thanks for bringing that up, I'll have a look at i5 reviews and start compairing.
