Even though these cards are not new, the price I got them at was a great deal. I paid $70 plus tax for each of my PNY GeForce 9800GT XLR8 Performance Edition cards that are power efficient.
I plan to run them in the dual SLI setup for boost in performance since the price was right.
I'm looking for a budget of about $500 or so and need suggestions on a possible setup please. Been a while since I've built a computer. Was also planning on watercooling it with a complete setup that I already have to overclock.
So my main things are:
1. Most water cooled overclockable setup for the money
2. Something to work well with my 2 already purchased graphics card
3. I have a 750GB SATA HDD but might want a 30GB SSD drive for the OS
4. Hopefully will be a quad core system as I plan to keep this one for a while and upgrade parts down the line if needed.
I plan to use it for video and picture processing and editing, some gaming, internet, word processing, and all the other norm stuff. I will probably do a lot of video encoding and hooking it up to the big screen TV to watch movies in 1080P.
I guess the parts needed will be:
1. CPU
2. Mobo
3. RAM
4. PSU
5. Sound card (unless if it's already decent on the mobo)
6. HD suggestion maybe SSD if possible for now. May stick with 750GB SATA already have at the moment.
I'll pick up a case that will be decent and probably modify it to some extent.
