You'l lbe disappointed with the 5670, it isnt very powerful and it doesnt even need pci connectors so you could run it off a 300W PSU easily, so the 650W is a massive overkill. I'd downgrade the case to an el cheapo, like $80 ones. I don't see the point of a big shiny expensive cases, as they don't improve performance and only look cool for lan parties and stuff, but they may cool your components better than cheap cases. But that isn't really essential because you're not going to be overclocking. Swap 5670 for 5770 www.computerlounge.co.nz Swap scout for Ikonik EN1 (has the word gaming in it so it should have sufficient airflow) or the A10/A30 ($10 more with side window like the scout) www.computerlounge.co.nz Only $10 more than the scout and 5670 You could also downgrade the PSU to a 550W and get a better case |

In my mind, if someone asks for help then they are prepared to receive it. He had several good answers eight pages ago. The fact that this thread is so long shows how much of a waste of time it was. Not to mention the 64vs32bit question, which two seconds of searching would have answered. |
