grabbing 2 of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102872 to run in crossfire with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131402 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103692

 

 

now i have a mid tower case, its very shitty (this is what i get for buying an 18 dollar fucking case from xoxide when they were closing) and i want to grab a full tower case (going to add shit into it over time) so wanted your help finding a very nice full tower, or a big mid tower. this is the full tower i was looking at, it looks pretty cool but noone has left reviews yet http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811108221

nice graphics card! i am the biggest AMD fanboy ever and I've bought AMD for years; i'm even running a Phenom II X4 940 Black on this Pc right now.

 

but I gotta tell you, the i7 beats it like none other, and I hope hope hope AMD will start releasing Tripple-Channel DDR3 mem controller CPUs that can beat the crap out of the i7, but thats probly not gonna happen for a little while

 

P.S. get a SSD they r so nice http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167016

too expensive for me right now i'll wait for price drops. load times aren't a big issue for me, and yes i am an AMD fanboy as well :-) but im also a nvidia lover, which is hard for me to get these 5870s

 

and what do you think about this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130480&cm_re=gtx_285-_-14-130-480-_-Product compared to the 5870s?

Okay so Sapphire is fine, but a waste of money for the "vapor x" cooling, and their warranty isn't impressive. Go with these.

 

XFX version 400$ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150456

 

Double lifetime warranty and great customer service.

 

For PSU APEVIA and rosewill are garbage, go with a corsair or antec, you'll need about 650 watts, so go with a 750 or higher.

 

I personally would say for you get the Corsair 850TX or 850HX if you want removable cables. If you want antec go with TPQ 850 for 150 or the TQP 1000 for 170.
