Would appreciate any and all opinions and feedback. This is my first build, and I have yet to buy anything because I would like the blessing from you fine folks out there.
CPU- AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2 GHz 6x512 KB L2 Cache
Cooler- Undecided, really want to do water cooling but what is the best water cooling system???
RAM- 8 GB DDR3 Corsair Dominator (is this the correct /best RAM?)
MOBO- ASUS Crosshair IV
GPU- ATI 1 GB 5870 x2 in crossfire or Single 2GB ATI 6950. Does Crossfire make that much of a significant difference??
Case- Corsair Obsidian 800 D
PSU- Corsair 850 W Professional series
HD- 300GB Gaming Western Digital VelociRaptor 10,000RPM SATA-II, should I do RAID 0, does it make that much of a difference??
Well that about sums up the nuts and bolts of what I want to do, is this a a viable build for a first timer? I'll be overclocking it and playing mostly MMO's and RTS'. Any feed back you have would be fantastic and much appreciated !!!! Happy 2011!~!
