what website are you using and what is this computer for??

 

[impulse20110]

Will be used mainly for gaming. i want to be ably to play on higher settings and
last for at least a few years without having to update any hardware

Parts are from tiger direct

do you plan to get a second gpu later on? Do you have a nice speaker system? cus 750w is enough for 2 and i wouldn't pay more than half the price of the speakers for the card. also don't pay that much for a 560ti, the cheapest well rated ones will perform the same and you sould overclock it to the same peeds easily. Also onle get 8gb's nothing uses over 6 absolute max now and if they get there that's an easy fix, and you can grab most of this stuff on newegg cheaper like the ram you can get 8gb's of g.skill 1600mhz for 50 bucks. otherwise looks pretty good i gues, but lately asus has had support issues so gigabyte is a better buy atm

 

[impulse20110]

i wasnt planning on getting another gpu. is it worth getting 2 cheaper ones then 1 top of line?

 

[impulse20110]

which gigabyte would you recommend for around 200 sense u think their a better buy?

GIGABYTE GA-P67A-UD4-B3 Intel 6 Series Motherboard - ATX, Socket H2 (LGA1155), Intel P67 Express, 2133MHz DDR3, SATA 6.0 Gb/s, RAID, 7.1-CH Audio, Gigabit LAN, USB 3.0, SLI/CrossFireX Ready ?

 

[jonnyp11]

look for a gigabyte with a z68 chipset like this would be good, and really when comparing specs is the same as the 200 buck ones

and a single higher end card is better than 2 lower end ones untill you're paying 5 and 600, cus there is less power raw, better drivers, and better to barely less performance.
