Hello all, I'm new here.
I am rather new to the whole computer hardware scene, as I mostly specialized in other more software related things. So, here's what I have so far, and am wondering if this would be a good setup. I'm planning this to be a gaming computer. What I'm thinking right now:
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 3000 BX80623I72600K
SAPPHIRE 100311-3SR Radeon HD 6970 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
I was wondering if someone knows a good power supply that would work with this, and I also have no clue what I need for a decent motherboard and memory.
If I'm missing something, I'd appreciate it if someone points it out. Thank you for your help in advance!
Forgot to add, I'll probably pick out a nice Seagate for the hard drive. Any opinions on what I need for cooling it? Thanks again
