Hey everyone
Ive been busy buying and ordering parts for an upgrade on my system so I will be using my old and new parts, my new system layout:
Motherboard: ASUS S1155 Sabertooth Z77 Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core i7 2600k
GPU: ATI 7970 3GB Gigabyte PCIe Video Card
RAM: DDR3 8GB (2x4G) Corsair 1600MHz Vengeance CL8 Kit
PSU: 775 Watt Thermaltake Toughpower XT Modular Power Supply
I have a few questions:
1) is this all compatible with one another or is there something ive overlooked
2) will this all run comfortably on my power supply (as in even under heavy load) (im not looking to over-clock at this moment)
3) do I have room for add-ons, I still have money in my budget and I am a little worried with the heat the 7970s give off so is there room for some extra coolers for me?
4) also should I go with a 7950 and go for Crossfire at a later stage when I need to?
Any help will be much appreciated
