Do you honestly think you can tell me you can see a difference between 100 FPS and 200 FPS? Any card that is better than the 9600GT can handle a 1280 x 1024 resolution. CrossfireX and SLI is just a waste of money at that low of a resolution.

A 32-bit operating system can only address 4GB of total memory. Your selected GPUs would use up 1GB and you are left with 3GB of system ram.

Unless you live in a hot hot environment or plan on doing some extreme overclocking, liquid cooling on the current phenoms are a joke.

I would go intel there better right now. 780i or 680i would probably be the cheepest due to ddr2 prices

dude PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE dont get AMD, your throwing your money away. do some research on Intel , and i know you will be much more happy. If you are so fond of AMD , wait a bit till their new processors come out soon. They will probably be better

Futureproofing is a dumb concept now. In 5 years time, you will have upgraded to a GPU that is four times more powerful than the 4850 or you will have a completely new computer.

ya seriously man , look at your options.

XpubuX has provided you with an excellent system
DST4ME as provided you with an excellent system

and yet you are still choosing those parts. Your getting less for your money that way.

I understand that its the customers choice, but us guys on the fourms see a lot of computers being built, and we wouldnt recommend anything that you would be dissapointed with. You came here asking for help, and your not taking any of our suggestions into consideration.

 i HIGHLY recommend you reconsider. If not ,well i tried, and i hope you enjoy your system man . Good luck !

there is nothing for you to upgrade the cpu to, that will come anywhere near the i7 setups we have shown you.

Nope, that won't touch i7, the black editon was compared to a q6600, that is snack for the i7

with the i7 system you can upgrade to a future cpu, with your amd sytem, you want to upgrade to a 2 year old cpu.

So let me get this straight:

You want to pay MORE for worse components with LESS ability to upgrade in the future.

That's insane, there is no reason to do that. i7's overclock 20 times better than AMD's at the moment, don't waste your money bro.

With all due respect, This is the most retarded argument. There is no comparison between the AMD chip and i7.  Please lock this thread.Shocked
