I've been following the forum for a while, this is what i've choosen from an italian e-store:


CASE: Cooler Master HAF 912 Plus ATX Nero (CMRC912PKKN1)

PSU: Corsair Enthusiast Series TX750 V2 750W 80Plus Bronze (CMPSU-750TXV2EU)

RAM: DDR3 Corsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8 1600MHz 8GB (2x4GB) CL8

CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K

MB: Asus P8Z68-V PRO Socket 1155 Intel Z68 DDR3 SATA3 USB3 HDMI ATX

GPU: XFX Radeon HD 6950 Core 800MHz Memory GDDR5 5000MHz 2GB DVI DisplayPort HDMI

HD: 2x Samsung SpinPoint F3 500GB 3.5" 7200rpm 16MB SATA2 HD502HJ

Everything listed above: 859€ - 1180$

I didn't put the single prices because i'm interested in buying at this particular store (close to home, i can collect the pc directly at the store).
As 6950 they also have "PowerColor Radeon HD 6950 Core 800MHz Memory GDDR5 1250MHz 2GB DVI 2xHDMI DisplayPort" or I could choose the "XFX Radeon HD 6970 Core 880MHz Memory GDDR5 5500MHz 2GB 2xDVI-I HDMI 2xDisplayPort" adding 80$.
I know the 6950 can be unlocked to reach the 6970 but i've got no experience and, if i'm not wrong, with these particular 6950 models it's not possible.

Thanks!!
