well they already sell i5 mobos here in romania, i'm sure they're everywhere, so the CPUs should be on sale in a few weeks. what i see is that an i5 mobo costs 2 times less than an x58 one also, didn't mean to offend with the stuff/staff thing, i just couldn't help it
1] I already spotted i5 boards here. The CPUs will be out soon. 2] GTX260 216 is a superb performer. Its 20%-25%max. slower than 285. If you have 22" or less moniter, it yields 60+ fps in almost all the games. 3] As I said, 550 performs as much as an E8400. If you SLI using that CPU, it will heavily bottleneck. 4] Again as I said, 955 performs nearly as much as a Q9550. So, why are you really moving to AMD? Either go for i5 or i7. Else its waste.
because i do not have a pc now and i can not wait for the new hardware I ll get this now and after 1-2 months when the new come out and be tested i will sell and get them Good news i can get one GTX295 1792MB GX295NHWFC with Lifetime warranty for 380 euros!!!!! new!!!
why havent you check out the 275? If you get 2 its = to a gtx 295, just without all of the heat issues.
3 x GTX 265 give you nce hot room. 2 x GTX 275 give you less heat room 1 x GTX 295 give you best temp room, however the card can't be volt-mod. Therefore limited oc.
i was looking for i7 hardware and its go all the way to 1000 euros to get the good staff its 300 more than the last setup i was thinking.....i know it will be way faster but still...
ok man i got it do not explode on me what about the x4 or the cpu i had? with the gtx295 with nforce mobos Or i will go for i7 and thats that!!!!!!!!
If you are spending so much (GTX295+PII), opt for i7 instead of it. CPU/Mobo/Ram costs 500$ and is worth for SLI. Opt for it. I wouldn't recommend your selection.
So this is the final setup ASUS RAMPAGE x58 OCZ OCZ3G1600LV3GK 3gb INTEL Core i7 i7-920 EVGA 017-P3-1295-AR CO-OP Edition VelociRaptor THERMALTAKE Tr2 RX-850w im gona get them for 950 euros
looks like a rockin setup, i am almost tempted to suggest a similar priced SSD over the velociraptor though to be honest.
i was thinking about it but i did not have a good experience with them a wile buck whenever i was heavily multitasking it was freezing so on another 2 pc i used them so im gonna gowith a veloci i had one on the ather pc i had and it was fine As i see you have 2 x 260 whats you're fps in crysis?
Crysis. Crysis. Cryisis! That is what we base our GPU performance on. A singlre GTX 275. Will not ever! give you, the perfect rendering you require at 1900x1200. Crysis does well on SLI rendering. CPU. requirements are to a less extent needed. Crysis. To my mind. Is the benchmark for GPUs. And that is why I chose. My system. To run at 1920x1080. Without Hiccup. Plenty of $/£s /Eu's. But if it is what you require ? Then you have to BTB.

But to my mind it may show what you are dealing with? BTW. No AA. at 1920x1080. is no big deal. also am running realisis..... Mmmmm....
I just know its one of the most heavy games out there so if a setup can play that it plays everything if the setup i choose will play as good as my old one and hopefully better im happy
It is indeed . Thee most. Heavily GPU dependent game ever! And is basically a benchmark for all. You will have to choose the requirements yourself. Dependant on Budget/Aspect Ratio/to what extent of play you require. It is a very demanding program, with many variables. If you can concquer it? Then you should be able to play any GPU. bound Game/Sim. (Not CPU. bound ( Flight/Racing program.) SLI. Is the way, for perfect Crysis. A single GTX295 should be suffice.(2x285s Cream a 295.) Of added interest a GTX 295 Is an SLI card. If any of your fav. Older games donot support SLI. Well your 295 is as good as a 9600GTS????.(Just a thought) The rest of Sim Game World are dependent on manufacturer of Game/Sim. And what they want to promote?(No Suckers here though???)
