Hello, all. I'm building a new system and have two in mind: the first one will work perfectly, the second one (Core i7 based) I'm not so sure about. Here's the specs of the second:
MSI X58 Platinum mobo (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130216)
PC Power & Cooling 750W PSU, 60A@12v (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703009)
2GB OCZ Reaper DDR3 1333 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227355)
Intel Core i7 920 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227355)
Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870 x2 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102768)
===
All in an Antec 900 case (it will fit the card, I've checked). I can downgrade the 4870 x2 to a GTX 280 if necessary. My main worry is the X58 working well with all of this - can I get a professional's opinion? There are no reviews to go on for X58/Core i7. Thanks so much!
