So my buddy wants to build his own computer and asked me to spec him something cutting edge but not TOO extreme this looks like a pretty nice setup using top end components without being my normal over the top build.
Any suggestions? (ps he says he does not want to wait for IB/SB-E etc)
Single 580 vs 2x 570SC?
Corsair H100?
PSU enough for 2600k and 2 570's? (What would be needed for 3 570's or 2 580's?) -Thinking for the future in case he goes nutty
SSD's? I tend to only go Intel SSD's but Im a person driven by habit any better or = that are cheaper?
