whay 1000W ??? 850 are good for this pc ?

[toutagamon]

@XxBulletXPtoofxX

850 would be enough. I have never seen my watt load going above 750, but even the 100W psu gets really stressed there and is very noisy.

Luckily I never need this kind of wattage, for 1080P/60fps gameplay. Actually I almost never even need to OC or use the second card anyway.

Why no SLI?

@samuelgd99

It was showing zero improvement.

@bif0978

Very good, but I'd wait for Nvidia's new cards, which will be out in a couple of months. If you are in a harry, I'd suggest you consider the Radeon 7950.

@rowanlewisuk

Can I be friends with your friend, so I can meet his mom? xD

[toutagamon]

@rowanlewisuk

Lol you da man! Just make sure he doesn't smash your head if he finds out. Better yet, make sure he never finds out, lol.

[vegnachaos]

[inFamousCeRea1]

[samuelgd99]

@toutagamon damn....thanks for the reply

[bif0978]

@lamiac2411 I PM'ed you :) suss my new build list :) and cheers buddy :D

[lamiac2411]

@bif0978 Ya I know but just to give u an idea I paid $55 for my 1tB HDD last year. That same drive is now $150 on the egg. Almost 3X the cost for the same product. But if u need that type of space I understand how it would be worth it to some people. Good luck bro:)

[bif0978]

@lamiac2411 But SSD's are way to expensive At the moment. I want one big HDD might consider a 1TB instead of a 3 for storing Music and movies :D ahaha! but I'm happy just with 1 SSD at the moment for My Operating System, programs and games. Also I cant spend more than 400 for a GPU Because I am on a slight budget and it wont be just for pure gaming! I just want a PC with no limits what so ever :)
