Hello, I plan on building mynew pc as soon as possible. This is going to be my first time ever doing so, but have watched videos and done various research and seems fairly easy.
I have made up my mind on what parts to use, but am not so sure if everything will function together correctly.
I plan to use this setup to play bf3 and do some video rendering. I only need the Computer it self no monitor, keyboard, etc.
So this Is what I have so far, I plan on adding another GTX 580, more HDD's, Ram, and a Bluray drive.
I've read that the psu can candle two gtx 580's with no problem, is it true?
