If you already have x64 Windows 7, good, you could get me CPU cooler and optical drive instead...would be good for 4.4-4.5Ghz easy!

1210670 2011-06-20 02:18:00 Ah, right. Cheers. Would the graphics card be able to play most games on relatively high setting would it? I suppose my main concern would be the graphical processing. HighLatency (16434)
1210671 2011-06-20 02:28:00 The 560 is a great combo for 1680x1050 22"LCD panels..More than enough! SolMiester (139)
1210672 2011-06-20 02:36:00 Cheers guys. I appreciate the help. I'll be buying the first parts this week so I'll get back if I have any issues. Really looking forward to putting it all together. :D HighLatency (16434)

Platform I think as there is a good chance you will upgrade a GPU before CPU....His LCD & resolution is not high end, therefore a high end GPU is not required...He will not be GPU limited at his resolution either, however it is possible to have a RPG game stress even a Sandy Bridge....
