Shaft, I agree completely. But the bad thing is, everyone agrees here. Bad spending of money. Its his choice though, no matter how dumb it might be.

Still, his choice. Our experience tells us it was stupid. He wanted to do it.

That psu will not run two 580s and the rest of your system. They recommend 950 for dual 580s due to the draw on the cards.


Thank you for the quick suggestion
NewEgg will probably have to cancel my order over this as I don't think they just swap items in and out. I sent an email to their customer service to swap out the PSU for:

CORSAIR Professional Series HX1050 1050W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Modular Power Supply

SSD
well.. if thats your choice

WD 600GB HDD
as far as i know wd uses 2 platters and samsung uses a single, less platters more reliable, the fact that it costs 250 dollars is fucking laughable id be seriously disgusted with you if you bought it

pcie 2.0 x 16 (x2)
not as important as you might think, id be more interested in extra phases but i think gigabyte is the right route

case
ft02 is the best case on the market, seriously

i really like the psu you picked out, gold rating will save you money and seasonic means its super reliable but 850 probably wont cut it, even if it works you have no overhead for overclocking anything


As for the HD, I like it and am going to stick with it. Thanks for the input though :)

I'm researching that case though as soon as I'm done with this PM. Thnx again!

Edit: That case looks pretty sweet. If my order gets canceled I'm going to get it :) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163161&cm_re=ft02-_-11-163-161-_-Product
