but when youre not gaming, your video card isn't exactly using all that power anyway.

Even idling most cards use 100-150W.
Ok, thats great advice too, I think I'm looking at buying the lot thats listed in that picture, but I don't know which site that is, where should I be buying this stuff from? Also two things I forgot about, one is would this be WIFI enabled straight from the get go? Or do I need to buy an adapter, and also, I need two HDMI ports as I am looking to connect up two monitors to it. Any advice?retodd33Scan's an excellent tech site. (site that picture list was compiled from) http://www.scan.co.uk/ free shipping with 20 posts at this fourm http://www.bit-tech.net/ participate in some of the spammy general threads the 5770 will support 2 monitors you'll need a wifi card/dongle However one alteration to ionusX build. http://www.scan.co.uk/products/amd-phenom-ii-x4-955-black-deneb-core-s-am3-32ghz-8mb-cache-ht-3600mhz-125w-retail instead of the 840 he chose, slightly more cache which means its slightly faster
+you'll want a monitorDon't waste your money, settle for a 1.5K build.
2012 is coming and they're arent any games out right now that really pushes hardware. My build destroys every game. I have the money go spend an extra 2K on PC if I wanted, but that's just dumb financial management.
i5 2500K $200
x2 HD6970 $700
HAF X $200
Gig Z68 $150
64GB SSD $100 (can probably get a 120GB Vertex 3 for $200)
750W PSU $120Especially if you're new to PC gaming, it's unwise to spend that much. Learn the ins and outs of PC hardware with a cheap build and then you can delve into expensive water cooling setups and eyefinity builds without forum intervention.
