Oh maybe not 570's, I hadn't realized he had changed his graphics card. I thought he was still on the 560. Maybe bigfella will see this post and recommend, because he seems to be the one that knows about what PSU to get.

We are just talking about people buying stuff in general. We just mean that people live too much in the NOW, and think, "Hey, if I get this it will last me 2 years, but I can wait a little and get this other one and it will last me 10. I want it now, who cares if it fails in 2 years?" Um...

Actually jonny, I would have suggested the corsair builder series one, but it was more expensive when I clicked on it to review the details. On the master list of PSUs, it was like $75, and $55 after mir. But once I clicked on it, it was like $95. Maybe it was a glitch in my computer, but...

He could do just fine with a 750W PSU for two GPUs.

Yep you are absolutely right. I mean I am even like that at some points. However, if I know that I can get better quality if I wait, then I'll definitely wait.

Well the 6950 2GB's are better cards, like I said, a little more expensive than their Nvidia counterparts, but worth it I think.

Here is a build I posted for a person a few days ago. It pretty much fits your standards. Although the graphics card may be a little high. If you take a look at the original post, you can also get some other suggestions from other members...

No you want to go with 2x4GB.

Well the games won't be at high settings or anything. But you will definitely be able to play without too much lag, if you are on low settings. $500 is a tough gaming build budget, because if you want a good graphics card, that takes about a third of your budget. If you can maybe save up a...

And actually, if you have the little extra money. This HDD is much more worth it. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136533

Or either of these power supplies. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371048 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207013

Depending on the age of his Mobo, the disc could come with all the drivers he will need.

Change that power supply to Corsair, Seasonic, Antec, Silverstone, XFX, or PC Power and Cooling. Here is one that I would recommend, as Rosewill just doesn't make very good power supplies. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256071 Also, since your Motherboard is 6.0...

Gigabyte is also a reputable brand, but they are pretty close. So if you want to save some money then go for the Sapphire.

These are two good ones. After mail in rebates, they come to about $260. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161372 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127562--I have this GPU and I love it. The graphics are just phenomenal. I run many games on max...

Well kind of. If you put the disc in, it should download all the needed drivers. The processor disc will probably mainly just download a utility to modify the CPU and it's cores, at least that's basically what mine did. Your motherboard disc will have a lot of drivers and utilities however.

Alright, yeah no problem.

Oh really, well then why haven't we advanced that technology yet? *Looks down at phone* Oh yeah, we want little handheld devices to stare at constantly. I'm not going to lie, I do use my phone a lot and will use it a lot when I get a new one, hopefully a smart phone. But seriously, my physics...

That's a very true statement Stranglehold. But that's for two reasons. One, people don't know that it is much cheaper to build one. Two, people are too lazy to build one themselves or have a friend do it. Actually I just thought of third one, people want things now, they don't want to have...

Bump.
