    Gaming PC

    Hi,

    Was wondering if i could get some opinions on a gaming PC i'm going to be building in the near future. Currently I'm going for something along the lines of:

    Spec

    I'm looking for it to cost no more than the price of this basket, and be fairly upgradeable in the future, so putting in 2, maybe if i have enough power 3 way SLI when i need the extra performance.

    Thanks!

    DK.

    Re: Gaming PC

    Btw what are anyone's thoughts on the motherboard? Would this board be a better choice over the sabretooth version?

    And would it be possible to get 3x gfx in SLI with the setup (eventually).

    Cheers!

    I would go with the sabertooth personally and you should switch the PSU to a corsair AX850 itll handle sli fine but not 3 way sli but you don't really new 3-way SLI 2-way is enough, also better changing the cooler to a Noctua NH-D14 and maybe the RAM to some mushkin RAM and the hard drive to a samsung spinpoint F3.

    but other than that it seems very good, similar to the one im getting after exams with what I mentioned included but I'm getting the colossus white and a gtx 580.
