Why are you going dual mid-end cards? Just seems like a waste.

?

why get an i7 for gaming? all it really adds is hyperthreading which almost no games use. just get an i5-3570.

also going to be running servers and  programming and video editing.


I have looked at many gameplay videos with the EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti SSC 2GB, and it runs most games at 1080p perfectly.

Dedicate 8GB of it as a RAM drive, install Windows on it. Super fast OS!

[Mr.jacksaunt]

does that work?

[MackTheHunter]

does that work?

Indeed. It's faster than an SSD, too. :D

[SPooK]

does that work?

yes.

[KoopaScooper]

mmm ramdisks

[DontCare4Free]

does that work?

Yes, but you're going to have to reinstall every time you reboot.

also word of advice: don't get wireless keyboards and mice. unless you're moving them around a lot, you'll just use them the same way as wired keyboard and mice, but having to replace the batteries every 2 or 3 days and them dying in the middle of gaming.

i have a logitecg K260 and it claims the mouse battery lasts 5 months and the keyboard batteries last 2 years. So far, the mouse battery died 1 month in but the keyboard is going strong

Yes, but you're going to have to reinstall every time you reboot.
