They make mechs that cheap?
They were on sale from $75 to $60, and I used a combo deal to get them down to $20 each. Sadly, I was left with two $5 Prescott CPU's, but I found a use for them.

Sorry. I meant over the 660ti or the 670 FTW.[/quote]Oh, then yes. The 660ti has a pretty small memory bus for the power it offers, so I'd recommend the 670 over it if you have the money for it. If you were spending $300 on a video card you would want the 7950 anyway.


And why is that? I thought NVIDIA cards were much better for video rendering because of the CUDA cores.

Actually now that I think about it would this be the best motherboard for my build? Since I have the $200 saved up from the CPU and possibly $70 if I go for the 670FTW instead of the 680 could I possibly get another motherboard?

If you're doing applications that utilize cuda, then get a 670.

That's a nice build.

And yes, the PSU is sufficient.

More than enough.

Also, you can get a Seasonic M12II 620W that's also 80+ Bronze and Semi Modular for $80. And make sure you have an aftermarket cooler for that.

You'll probably only be using 450W or so. Get a better PSU though, like the M12ii.

I can personally recommend that.

I have one, cable management is fantastic.

I found a surge protector on sale for an equivalent of $50. Should I get it?

Razer announces a mechanical version of their Nostromo for the same price as a full mechanical keyboard, $130.

Probably would pay >80
