Hello everyone. I'm pretty much decided everything for my first gaming build, however I would like to check with you guys on my GPU. I have picked out this:
GTX 465 for $100: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133344
I just want to see what you guys think. I have heard that this thing gets really hot and uses a lot of power. But looking, at the benchmarks, it seems to whoop the 6770 (which is what I was originally getting), especially if it were to be unlocked to a GTX 470. And i'm looking to stay really close to $100 with the GPU budget. I probably will SLI in the future, however, to stay in budget, I have chosen not to get a capable PSU now and upgrade when necessary.
Here are some of the parts i'm going to order along with this:
CPU: 2500k
Mobo: MSI P67A-G45
PSU: COOLER MASTER eXtreme Power Plus 500w
Case: HAF 912
I hope you guys can help.
