    No issues with your build. Like I've said for the past few months like a broken recorder, the Core i7 Bloomfields are overkill for gamer, so I don't see why you would ask "good enough".

    It's way more than good enough. No issues, but no stamp of approval from me since that build costs too much to be cost effective.

    If you don't like allot of wires i would go with either a HX750/850 corsair or the new XFX 850 Psu.

    For case, look at CM 690, CM Scout, CM HAF 922, ThermalTake V9, Antec 900, CM HAF932, CM Stacker, Antec 1200, CM Cosmos S. For mid-tower I'd recommend HAF922 and anyone out of those for full-tower.

    For about £50 more you could have a Radeon 5870 which is much faster than the 285 and supports DX11. You could even get a 5850 for £200 which again supports DX11

    Or if you don't like ATI then wait for the 300 series from Nvidia, no sense in getting a non DX11 card unless you can't afford it.

    Nothing, yet.

    Obviously it is the next standard we're slowly moving onto. So the question is why would you be silly enough not to buy a DX11 card if your upgrading? (unless like I said already, you can't afford it).

    That would be like buying a PC that wouldnt allow you to install windows 7 lol

    your getting a core i7 for gods sake, I think you can manage a DX11 card too.

    Does window 7 require DX11 and cant accept DX10 and so on?

    Nope, games will just run in DX10 mode.

    I.e future games that support DX11 (like crysis 2) will only run in DX10 on a non DX11 card such as the 200(Nvidia) and 4000(ATI) series.

    if you want to save money the Core i5 is similar performance for a fraction of the cost...even beating the i7 in some real world cases. Only optimized software for the i7 (which is very few and far between) will you really see an advantage. Otherwise it's fine.

    but the price of EVGA GTX 295 here is 666$
    but in newegg it just 499$
    so is it good to buy in Dubai or Korea?
