Raptor said:800w wouldn't be necessary for a simple SLi. 800w would be necessary if he went ham with overclocking. Also, Intel processors SMASH AMD ones at higher budgets. I'm not sure why you're suggesting a downgrade. Also, another GTX and 770 wouldn't be necessary, he'd be better off with a bigger SSD/HDD - his GPU isn't going to go under 70fps on anything currently on the market, and investing several hundred more on a second one is going to have no tangible benefits.
Cannabis said:Nothing currently on the market, but I figure that if you're going to build a PC now you should make sure it won't need an upgrade for a while.
Raptor said:It's not that hard to add it later. AMD cores would still not be preferable.
Cannabis said:No it wouldn't be, if you're already building it though. Yeah but I'm an AMD guy.
Raptor said:I don't get the whole "I'm an AMD guy" thing. I get it with nVidia vs. ATI, but AMD is CLEARLY smashed at higher price ranges. I prefer the GTX GPU series over its Radeon counter-part, but I admit that Radeons are also quite good, yet with AMD I truly cannot see how they manage to sell as well as they do.
