[joh06937]

yea i think now ill go with the http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811517004

basically the same case and a great price :good:

now i just got to get a job get the money and then put it all together but hey baby steps right

yeah, no kidding

Good case. The only problem I ran into with it was. If you get a really tall aftermarket CPU heatsink, it can hit the side fan. Other then that, they are good cases.

Crossfire. Say the 5770 your looking at. You get two, install both, put one or two crossfire bridges on top and they run together. For the money if your buying new, you would be better off getting a better single 5850 for about the same cash.

so its better just getting a 5850 and then maybe when i get more money cross firing the 5850? and whats a crossfire bridge?

i would say that would be a good way to go.

the bridges come with the cards. you'll see but you won't need it until you buy another (if you do) down the road.

Agreed. Like said almost all 5850 comes with a bridge.
