So i have finally decided to build my new pc, still running a p4 and x800 (i'm surprised it still works!) and i have come to decide upon the following,
Intel Core i7 2600
ASUS Sabertooth P67 Motherboard B3
G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3
XFX Radeon HD6950 2GB [HD-695X-CDFC] x 2
Corsair HX-850 Power Supply
CoolerMaster CM 690 II Advanced
Only thing is i got a few questions...
1) Will that particular motherboard have any trouble running those 2 video cards in crossfire (spacing between cards really)
2) Does the standard heat sink with the I7 2600 have any dramas fitting onto that particular board?
3) Is the PSU sufficient to power everything?
4) Will it all actually fit into the case lol (don't know if anyone can point me in the direction of a site that may help me with that)
I'm fairly well set on the I7 2600 as im not interested in over clocking (read that the 2600k is more for over clocking) and i don't have any real need for more then 8 gig of ram, the nly thing i can see myself would be that the motherboard might not be the best selection.
