OK,
Need to build a gaming PC from my parts closet. Got a friend coming into town the rest of summer and wants a desktop to play FPS, RTS, and some MMO games at my house.
Will use following parts:
Asus P6X58D-E
Asus 5870 2gb ROG or EVGA 480 gtx - don't know yet
12gb Corsair Domintator GT ram
dual 80gb Intel X-25
dual 1tb WD Cavier Black
X-Fi Titanium
Killer Xeno Pro NIC
BR-DVD Burner
Corsair 850w HX PSU
I have the following CPU's that I can use...
960
975x
980x
I know that the extra core's may not help with gaming, but they couldn't hurt. Will lightly overclock to 4~4.2ghz. Or could do a build with 875k, but don't want to have to buy a good quality MB, only have crappy Intel mATX that came with a bundle.
Thanks...
