Intel Extreme D975XBX2KR BAD AXE 2 975X (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard - Retail
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct....id=5&subcat=174
Now, my QUESTIONS:
1) What would be the best ATi-Crossfire card to get? Was thinking the master edition X1950XT bla bla bla but i was thinking should i wait for their new DX10 card?
2) What RAM would you recommend? Not too expensive but decent!
3) Would my PSU be good enough still to sustain a new system like that?
4) Any Hard Drive manufacturer recommendations?
5) Any other recommendations or comments?
My PC knowledge has gone so rusty since its been a while since i upgraded and i've found myself forgetting stuff / not knowing what i should be doing ha.
Thanks a LOT guys appreciate all help.
