Builing a gaming rig..

As the topic suggest, Im looking for bit of help/advice/info on building my first computer.. for the sole purpose of gaming.

Im looking to spend around ~800 GBP

Im hoping to be able to run crysis with this rig at MAX.. to well future proof it..

I been looking through sites like scan.co.uk but apart from CPU and GPU.. I have no idea what to do about cases, fans, cooling stuff, PSU and what not.

Please help!

No computer can actually max out crysis...the closest you would get with that budget is like an I7+GTX 285 or a 4890MonsieurX

well maybe not max max then.

I was hoping to build the rig around a ATI 4890 with some quad core and 4gb of ram

but when it comes to PSU, motherboards and all that.. Im lost.

Im starting to get an idea of the cpu and mobo being able to handle crossfire (sometime in the future..) however, what kind of PSU would I need for two 4890s? would a 750W be enough?

oh and 1 last thing about the mobo, as Im looking to use a AMD Phenom II X4 AM3, Im bit confused between mobos which say 790GX and 790FX.. the FX seem more expensive..
