new computer (gaming)

[alexx508]

hey guys im planning on making a low budget gaming computer, nothing overkill. these are the parts i want to buy

I already have a 5770 vapor x, so im buying another 1 (165$) (crossfired)

i7 920 (240$)

CORSAIR XMS3 4GB (90$)

OCZ GameXStream 850 watt for 50$.

XION Vantage Mid-Tower Case AXP100-001BK (45$)

and some motherboard. i need suggestions D=. 1) will all this fit into that cheap case, 2) are there enough wires ect for all the stuff lol (still a noob at this i googled how to build a computer =D. motherbaord has to be crossfire ready, dual channeled mem and intel D=. thx in advance <3

The platform you have chosen is X58 which uses tripple channel memory... you would need a 6gb kit.

i don't know what motherboard what suit you...

Are you ordering from newegg?

Case - that XION case have $15 shipping free. Better off to $60 Antec 300/ $70 CM 690II.
Motheroard - any X58 mobo. May be Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R??

This looks like a decent case at a very good price if you get it today (July 8). $35 with free shipping.

that motherboard mentioned above i already looked at, it has some bad reviews on newegg . SO i reviewed all the parts over again. some1 told me i was better off buying a full tower so i have plenty of space. Here are all the parts lol

Ultra M923 ATX Black Full Tower Case 100$

TR2 RX 650W Continuous-Delivery ATX Power Supply 90$ (i read 650 would be more than enough for 2 5830s in crossfire, so thats plenty for 5770's. last psu more than 4 people wrote that theirs broke after a week and that rebate was crappy

Core i7-930 Processor 200$

P6T LGA 1366 X58 ATX Motherboard 200$ (crossfire certified AND it looks kinda nice =])

and the 5770 vapor x i can only find for 175 at newegg.


CORSAIR XMS3 4GB (2 x 2GB) same ram. 90$

thats 835 dollars if im correct. and im guessing i dont need a videocard. hoping to run bad company 2, crysis 2, metro 2033, games like that on maxed 1440x900 with no hiccups or makin me feel this comp isnt as good as i thought lol xD

Again, you need tripple channel memory. a 6 gigabyte kit... there's a reason that motherboard has 6 RAM slots instead of 4.

something like this is what you need:

i cant see the ram ur trying to show. and would 6 gigs of ram cost ALOT more?

crucual 6 gigs. reviews say they used it on p6t (same mobo as 1 im buying). great reviews. i think 6 gigs is overkill for what im doing tho. and the price shows D=. but i have no choice lol
