Hello Guys, I would like, after 2 wonderful weeks around here, to start ordering my stuff.But first we need the last review, right?
Approximate Purchase Date: 1 week or so.(Shipping times varry from stock valability)
Budget Range: 1000$ or so.(4000 Lei)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, HD Video Watching, Browsing
Parts Not Required: Peripherals(keyboard,monitor, etc) Only hardware is needed.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: eMag.ro - Translated 99,9% with Google™.Strongly recommanded, prices from US to EU(RO) differ alot.
Country of Origin: Europe, Romania, Bucharest
Parts Preferences: I am quite fond of the nVidia video cards that I've used in the past.
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: Yes
Monitor Resolution: 1600x900(Planning on changing to a 1900x1200 - Not in the 1500$ budget)
Additional Comments: I don't have alot of experience with building PCs.(Virtually 0, but I think I've gathered a fair knowledge while browsing here.)
So far I have 2 versions, I would like you guys.To help me, with arguments choose a better one.
Version 1, lower video cards, expensive rest.
Version 2, higher video cards, lower rest.
My questions:
Obviously 500 more Leis is not taken lightly(roughly 130$), is it "at the end of the day" worth it?
Will I be ok with the 650W power supply? Considering its a SLI.
Any better parts for cheaper prices?(emag only - may appear cheaper on newegg or other sites, EU and US prices differ alot)
Thanks alot for all the help guys, I wouldn't have this 2 lists right now if it wasn't for the dedicated people around here.
Much love,
Alex.
