Q - What's the total build budget (less the LCD)? {Yeah, I know I can open all the links + add}

Q- Why AMD vs X58?

Suggested differences:
1. PSU - Corsair TX650W - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3438607&csid=_21
You want Japanese Capacitors.
2. KB - Razer Arctosa Gaming Keyboard - Black Edition - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4306235&CatId=3463
The one you selected seems really cheap.
3. Mouse - Razer Deathadder 3500 High Precision Gaming Mouse - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5272691&CatId=2390
4. Case - Cooler Master Gladiator 600 Mid Tower - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4950639&CatId=1842
You don't want USB/etc on the floor
5. HDD - Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 Hard Drive - 1TB, 7200 rpm, 32M - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4691122&CatId=139
For a few bucks more double your capacity ; If you ever RAID the WD won't work properly w/o TLER.
6. DVD = ok
7. LCD - ASUS VH226H 22" Widescreen Full HD LCD Monitor - 1080p, 1920x1080, 12000:1 Dynamic, 2ms, DVI, HDMI, Black - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=5371799&sku=A466-2200&srkey=VH226H
You want the 2ms LCD and ASUS is one of the best for a few bucks
8. GPU - EVGA 01G-P3-1465-AR GeForce GTX 465 Video Card - 1024MB GDDR5 - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6526205&CatId=3669
More memory and easily outperforms the GTX 460 and well worth the added $35.

There's no MOBO listed, and needed to comment on CPU and DDR.

Compare prices on Newegg but also look for COMBINATION deals.

 

[JDFan]

Also - What MOBO did you plan on using ?? I don't see one listed and hard to tell if the DDR3 RAM is correct without knowing what MOBO you have or are getting ! And is there any reason your using Tigerdirect over say Newegg ? (for example the same CPU @ newegg is $5 cheaper so need to know if there is a reason you need to use Tiger or are willing to use another site for better pricing !)

 

[budsatawny]

Newegg might have better prices.
And maybe a better PSU...Corsair , XFX...just a few

 

[Berzerker_999]

I want to know what motherboard I should get, for under 120

 

[jaquith]

$139 ASUS - ASUS M4N98TD EVO - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131636&cm_re=M4N98TD_EVO-_-13-131-636-_-Product
Tiger Direct - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=6077064&sku=A455-2894&srkey=M4N98TD%20EVO

Offer SLI, but it is worth the extra $20, otherwise the M4N75TD goes for about $99 - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6077065&CatId=5545

 

[budsatawny]

I want to know what motherboard I should get, for under 120

Q- Do you want onboard video?
Q- Are you planning on overclocking?

ASUS, and Gigabyte are reliable mobos.
$135.99 free shipping...http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103809
save you $4 on CPU
$119 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128438
Good mobo for overclocking, but you might wanna get a black edition of your CPU for easier overclocking.

 

[Berzerker_999]

no onboard video, I have a video card, and I might overclock

 

[Berzerker_999]

and with a sound card all under 120 for the motherboard

 

[budsatawny]

and with a sound card all under 120 for the motherboard

The Gigabyte board is an easy overclocking board..I have the ma 790x.....the board has a sound card..
There are tutorials for gigabyte boards all over..check Google.. They are a top brand.
The board as I posted earlier is 119.99...you even save a penny!!...LOL..104.99 with mail in rebate(I never use these, too much fuss no matter what the manufacturer)...AND FREE shipping
You might wanna think of this cpu....http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103808...it's a black edition...easier overclock..just up the multiplier...

 

[Berzerker_999]

but would the motherboard you said be compatible with my CPU AND my Video card?

 

[budsatawny]

but would the motherboard you said be compatible with my CPU AND my Video card?

It sure will it's set up for AMD. Did you consider the black edition of the chip you want?.I think it's about$20 more
than the one you have listed. For ease of overclocking, I myself would pay the extra $20, but that's just me.
And yes it will support your video card, 2 of them as a matter of fact...But check out the board on google you'll see

 

[Berzerker_999]

ok thanks! is it DX11 compatible or does the motherboard matter for that?

 

[budsatawny]

ok thanks! is it DX11 compatible or does the motherboard matter for that?

Yep it's it can run any directx formats
Any mobo can. Doesn't matter.

 

[Berzerker_999]

ok thanks! i'll look at this one

 

[budsatawny]

ok thanks! i'll look at this one

No problem glad I could help
