sounds pretty sick, u gotta get the 2gb version to unlock to the 6870 tho

I am currently a broke student so I bought my comp and have no intention of upgrading for quite a while. I tried to future proof it a bit, I can run Crysis 1 at max settings and 2x AA. At 1680x1050 (native)

http://www.logitech.com/en-us/gaming/headsets/devices/7248Logitech G930, even better. I love mine.

radeon 6990 or nvidia 570 lol the 6970 unfortunatley is a bit of a dissapointment

agreed, ppl dont understand. gaming is all about the GPU, an i5 and 4 gigs of RAM is good enough. I would say if you really want a little more than 4 just get 6 itsplenty,I have and I can run shogun 2 with all settings maxed ez.

I mean what ur talking about now is well above ur absolute cap, two 6970's will definatly rape anything on the market now higher res too but it really depends on what u wanna spend.

Oh and to the hex core question that is pointless for a gaming comp, ur games wont utialize that I have an i7 and its over kill, i5 is perfect for gaming, it saves u money and wont really bottleneck ur pc. The GPU is the most important thing so if u really have a cap save ur cash on the CPU and get the best performing GPU for ur money.

I dont see any ram, looks good tho.

I just last year had a good experience with cyberpower pc. its a little more cuz they build it for you if ur lazyand ive heard some bad experiences but mines great. came all nice and put together with zip ties on the cables and what not.

^ LOL mark webber sucks... go vettle!

u should get a 5870 or 5850 instead of GTX 470 IMO

what about two 5830s in xf on a 700w psu would that be ok?
