    Re: Building a Gaming PC

    Hello,
    You will reuire a better PSU as that graphic card is very power hungry. So the corsair 750w would be an ideal choise. And I would also suggest a better case as well. Like the Antec Nine Hundred or the P182 or the CoolerMaster Cosmos. You will need better cooling which all of the cases that I have mentioned will come with.

    I run, rock solid stable, a high end card with alot of other stuff on my Enermax Liberty 500W.

    Sorry, but the fact is, a 750W Corsair is ENORMOUS overkill for that system (in fact most systems).

    I like the look of the CoolerMaster Cosmos, what else would you recommend in the cooling department?

    As for the PSU, 750w sounds like the best option.
