|
 |
Hey guys this is the system I'm planning on buying, but not sure about GPU.
CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K Quad-Core Socket LGA1155, 3.40Ghz
Motherboard: Asus P8P67 Deluxe (Rev.3.0)
Memory: Corsair XMS3 Dominator 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz
Cooling: Antec KUHLER H2O 920 Liquid Cooling System
Case: Cooler Master HAF X Full Tower Gaming Case (RC-942-KKN1)
SSD: Corsair Force Series 3, 120GB 2.5" SATA
Power Supply: Corsair Professional Series Gold CMPSU-850AX 850W
Blu-Ray Drive: LG BH10LS30 Black 10x Blu-ray Writer
DVD Drive: LG GH24NS70 Black SATA DVD-Writer 24xDVD+R
HArd Drive: 4Xsata hard drives 7200 rpms
Video Card: Radeon 6970 (single card)
or
NVIDIA 580 (single)
or
Radeon 5870x2 (crossfire)
or
NVIDIA 480x2 (SLI)
I think I have too much power(850w) for a single card but not enough for crossfire or SLI ???
Any advice on GPU or System???
Thanks

I think all you need to do is to choose a model with a reference pcb, preferably one with a good cooling system and then flash it with the 6970 bios.
Google a bit for some tutorials or else wait for Werelds's reply, should be soon.

Too much for single GPU indeed, enough for multi-GPU.

Thanks for the advice guys. I think I will go with the 6950, still undecided about single or crossfire.
