New Mid-High gaming RIG, need opinions!
Isn't the beta toned down at this point in time? I'm not saying the 560 Ti can't handle it I'm just wondering if it will still perform quite as well if they have indeed dumbed it down for beta...- lightninstrikr

PSU preferrences?
I am a little confused as to why my thread was moved from Linus Q/A though... there are many more questions like it that were not moved. I understand it fits in the PSU section but it was more a question directed at Linus (and opened for general inquiry as well) than a generic "what should i...- lightninstrikr

A good price range for something in the 800w-900w range would be $100-$150 correct?- lightninstrikr

PSU preferrences?
I want to get something that could sustain 2 GTX 570's if I decide to get a second one. 650W would be a little shallow for that correct?- lightninstrikr

PSU preferrences?
Hi members of HWC! I'm in the process of building a mid-high end gaming rig ( http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/new-builds/47127-new-mid-high-gaming-rig-need-opinions.html comments would be greatly appreciated) and although I have watched most of your NCIX Tech Tips videos there isn't much...- lightninstrikr

New Mid-High gaming RIG, need opinions!
What are your opinions on Coolmax? I found this PSU for $50 cheaper than the one in my build and it has more power to boot... Newegg.com - COOLMAX CUG-950B 950W ATX12V v2.3 EPS12V v2.91 SLI Certified / CrossFire Ready Modular Active PFC and Compatible with Core i3/i5/i7 Power Supply- lightninstrikr

New Mid-High gaming RIG, need opinions!
Thanks for the great info, I'll look into some Z68's and see what I can find (and if I want it over the P67). The SSD was much more of an accessory than a necessity IMO and as such I'm willing to pay the price for it. I love smooth gameplay and with big games like Oblivion there was almost...- lightninstrikr

New Mid-High gaming RIG, need opinions!
I actually shopped around and managed to find a good rebate on a 570 to make it just under $300 vs the $225 for the 560Ti. I'm thinking that as long as I can get it at that price then it would be a worthwhile upgrade. Thoughts? Any why the Z68? What kind of performance benefits do I get? Does...- lightninstrikr

New Mid-High gaming RIG, need opinions!
1. I would be fine with 8-12G of RAM and maybe the 2500k but I was going for the slightly better as a way to have a bit more of a "future proof" PC (I know it's nearly impossible to future proof your rig on a budget but I can't help but make an attempt). 2. I haven't messed with OC yet and so I...- lightninstrikr

New Mid-High gaming RIG, need opinions!
Hello everyone! My tech friends are being fairly useless at helping me figure out whether the parts for my rig are balanced and work well with each other (I only dabble in tech specs when I am looking for upgrades). I'd appreciate any constructive comments you have about bottle necking...- lightninstrikr
