I would not go 5ghz if its going to need 1.7 volts because that is beyond the max voltage limit. Maybe wait for fermi to come out and and hopefully the prices lower for the 5800 series and the gt 100 reviews come out.

1 word. WOW

You wont regret buying the 5850. Facry max 1920x1080 8xaa = 40 fps average. Crysis 1680x1050 All High= 50 fps GTA 4 1680x1050 All at full except view distance at 35 = 30 fps

lol yea same here. $150 would've been crazy.
-
I heard the Prolimatech Megahalem coolers are really good at cooling and can beat the corsair H50. It should be enough if u pair it with 2 powerful fans to reach 4ghz on the i7. And never ever change to nvidia lol.

Yo check out Umart its in mount waverley. Alot of products and they are really cheap. http://www.umart.com.au/newindex2.phtml?bid=7

yea 10.1 it is
-
Yep thats what he is saying. Honestly its really the graphics card that makes a difference and since the phenom is cheaper u should be able to get a faster graphics card.
-
Sweet thanks for the help guyz.
-
Crysis gets annoying but other games dont. I guess i just got use to the thing.
-
So will the powersupply be powerful enough for the 2 5850's?
-
i play almost all games. I play at the resolution 3360x1050 (eyefinity with 2 22inchs).
-
That board is really nice but i would go a little cheaper unless ur planning to do 3 or 4 way crossfire.

I have 2 choices. 1. Get a 2nd 5850 Will my Zalman 750-HP watts support it? or will i be required to get a new powersupply. The psu has a 60 amps on the 12v rail. Will the E8400 4.0ghz bottleneck me? 2. Get a new Mobo and Cpu. I was thinking of getting the AMD Phenom x4 955 and a AMD 790GP-UD4H. I can get any of these options so please comment which one is better. I am on a $500 budget. Thx in advance.
