Going for a new build.

[Ford 1st MRB]

Case: Antec 900 (already own)

Motherboard: EVGA E760 CLASSIFIED "Overclocker's Pick"

CPU: Core i7 930

PSU: Rosewill 1000 W (already own)

Video Card: eVga GeForce GTX 480

RAM: G.SKILL PI Series 12GB (6 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600

HDD: 2 Velociraptors (already own)

CPU Cooler: Thermalright TRUE Black 120Rev.C CPU Cooler

Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium 7.1

Headphones: Fatal1ty Gaming Headset (already own)

Keyboard: G15 (already own)

Mouse: Razer Imperator 5600dpi

Optical: LG Blu Ray player (already own)

Grand total: $1,850.00

Utilizing what I already own I think this can be a pretty badass rig for a fairly small upgrade fee. Plus, the CPU comes with a free copy of Assassins Creed 2 and the memory comes with an LG 22x DVD Burner. Nice little extras. All I have to do is wait for the video card to come in stock. While I wait I'll consider if I really want to do this or not lol. I may just drop the Video card and keep my 2 eVga 275's.

Either way, I'll take some pics of the finished product whenever I decide what I'm going to do.

If I do go with the upgrade as it stands, I'll have some old parts that I can give to you guys for a fairly cheap price if you are interested. Parts would include an eVga 780i Motherboard with a e6750 and CPU cooler. Some GSkill Memory. A 650W processor I have that is collecting dust and a few other miscellaneous parts.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Which type of 480 there are like 3 different types of both.

[Gooderham 1st MRB]

My new Radeon 5770 is nice, you may want to consider that, as they are pretty cheap.

[Fray]

oooo I see the GTX 400 series are coming out. That means the GTX 300s might go on sale soon.

[Tragedy]

i got a radeon 5770 too no complaints on it really.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

GTX are pwnsauce. I love my 360's

[GMoney BAR]

I didn't know they made blu ray drivers for PC. That's cool

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Yep I have one they are nice and I think read dvds better.

I'll never consider buying another ATI product, but thanks for the suggestion.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Or Asus. Death to Asus.

[W. Myers]

The new GTX cards run at ridiculously high temperatures, just so you know. I mean like 100C temperatures, no joke.

pretty much, they idle at 80C

[Ford 1st MRB]

Which would probably be a problem if I had a cast iron tower with no fans in it I suppose. Seeing as I have 5 120mm fans and a 200mm fan in my pc as well as a gpu cooler, I don't care if it runs at 150C while it runs circles around ATI cards.

My new Xfx ati 5870 xxx run at 30-40C
