Copie Posted April 12, 2009 Posted April 12, 2009 ive edited my website with what i HOPE is my FINAL settings for this build, from the beginning to now the power of this build and the price has become much more desirable, i thank you all i have learnt a hell of a lot and thanks to every one. it fits it works this is how i want it. For 4 bucks more you can go the 295 over the 4870x2 GLH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 would i need a bigger PSU for a 295 or is the 700w enuf though the PSU stats says it can max out to like 820w so is that enuf 700-750W would be just fine (the 295 is actually more power efficient then a 4870x2) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copie Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Just make sure you check the amp rating on the 12v rail, both the 4870x2 and 295 require minimum 46a. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekroze Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 it says up to 50a on the 12v rails so i assume its all good at that right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copie Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 it says up to 50a on the 12v rails so i assume its all good at that right? Yeah should be fine. P.s. It says on your blog that your going with the xfx card, afaik they are all the same and your wasting 50 bucks on a sticker on the side of the card. Id personally go with the Gainward its a reference design (same as the xfx) and its 50 bucks cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Just built your machine on their page and came to $2318 (what you have listed in your sig) Holy hell those are high prices...why not use Newegg?
