Moving to the big apple the first week of July and want to take a PC up there with me. I'll have room, so that isn't a big concern. It will be my first SLI build:
CPU: Core i7 2600k
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD4-B3 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128494)
Memory: CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB)DDR3 1866 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233142)
Video Card: EVGA SuperClocked 012-P3-1572-AR GeForce GTX 570 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130595) x 2
Boot drive: WD6401AALS (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136319)
Storage: WD20EARX (2 TB green drive)
Case: Corsair 800D
PSU: Corsair HX1050 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139034)
Cooling: Corsair H60
LCD: Dell Ultrasharp U2410
Questions:
1. Will the PSU be enough?
2. Is the mobo a good choice?
3. Are the graphics cards good? I game heavily - from FPS's to strategy games to MMO's to RPG's.
4. Is it worth waiting for anything coming out in the next month?
5. Are there any other LCD's, in the 24" range, that I should look at? Preferably with a higher resolution?
My budget for the entire build is about 3,000 including the monitor. I won't be using any parts from my current PC as I will be leaving it at home for my parents and brother to use. Some of the parts, such as CPU, case, PSU, etc, I'll get from Microcenter. Whatever I cannot get from there, I'll order from Newegg.
