RossLex Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 It's been quite a while since I've built a gaming computer, but I'm starting to look into it again. I'm not really interested in overclocking or liquid cooling or anything like that, just want a system that will run modern games at pretty high settings well. Here's what I've come up with so far: Intel Core i7 930 Asus P6T SE 6GB G.SKILL Trident DDR3 PC-16000 Radeon HD 5870 128GB Kingston SSDNow V Series G2 SSD LG DVDRW Coolermaster HAF 932 Antec True Power 750W I was thinking that a year or two down the road if I wanted to upgrade I could add another 5870 in Xfire when the price comes down. I would also consider adding another SATA HDD for storage later. With those upgrades, I'm a little concerned the 750W power supply would no longer cut it, but I'm not sure. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 looks great. I'd swap out that antec for a corsair tx750 or hx750 & like you said, i would add a regular SATA HDD for storage as that 128gb is going to fill up rather quick everything else looks good though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossLex Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 So you don't think a 750W PS would limit me if I decided to add another 5870 later on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 not if you get a quality unit. if you're that worried about it get an 850, that will be plenty for sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
