Gaming Computer

Flar0n · 04-30-2008, 10:30 PM

I was just wondering if someone can help me make a computer, the three parts I must have are Sapphire HD3870, AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+, and an AMD 790FX Platinum Mobo. So basically any other parts. I plan to build in December.

i could probably do better than that with your budget.
what is your total budget?
do u need a keyboard, mouse, monitor?

Budget is around $1100, with monitor. I have a spare mouse and keyboard but a new one would be nice...very nice.

Anyone think its possible to go dual XFire with that budget with a downgrade on some parts?

You're building this December? Like 7 months from now? Don't waste your time looking for parts now. Things are going to change A LOT in that large of a time period. And also, that CPU is going to be hopelessly outdated by then.

Any Idea if the Phenom processors will drop in price by then?
