[Guest]

Can anyone confirm for me that the follow parts will work together in my new gaming build?

Thoughts? Anything I am missing? I will OC this eventually, but not out of the chute, so I don't need additional cooling. (I don't think so, anyway).

Thanks.

What resolution does your monitor run at? That is a big deciding factor on what will work best for a gaming system.

The parts will work together, but you might want to consider getting an ATI GPU since your motherboard supports crossfire. You also might want to get a 750W PSU if you think you'll want to go with a crossfire setup in the future.

I hope to run 1920x1200 resolution.

So I should look at a 4870 video card? I am not sure if I want to crossfire, but I like having the option.

Thanks for the input.

Also, try to use 1066 RAM as it actually makes a difference with AMD.
