Save $30 and get the 1090T BE...an extra $30 for an extra 100 mhz is not needed. You can overclock to well over 4.0 ghz without lowering the stock voltage

Also, you dont need 16GB of RAM, try getting 4 or 8 =/

[MOD]Zzxq · March 2011

All looks good but you are over doing it with the price on the Graphics card.. Thats just my opinion.

If this a build to better play WOW. LMAO. My emachines with a single core processor can run WOW on HIGH settings.

16 Gb's of ram. Waste. 4 Gb's is all you need.

Just curious are you building a server or a computer?

The GFX card is little over priced. I paid 100$ less for my 5770. With same potential that card has.

Don't waste your money on that RAM if it's specifically for gaming, since you're getting a 750w PSU, I'll presume you're gonna have a fair few fans in there too, just get 6-8gb 1800mhz DDR3. Corsair do it for pretty cheap these days.

As Domes said, just get the 5770, great GPU, for a decent price.

Overall, that build's pretty pricey, if you shop around, you could build that for around $700 easy.

Check this one out and tell me your feedback. I downgraded some stuff because people told me that i overbuilt it.

I'd throw in an aftermarket cooler too, stock ones aren't that great.

This.

If you want a cooler that gives you low noise output and low temps, go with a Noctua aftermarket cooler. They're kinda pricy tho 70-90 bucks.
Also, if you're not going to play at high resolutions, get a cheaper graphics card.
If you're looking towards future games that you wanna run at high settings, go for a 69-series graphics card.
