I'm planning on building [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] just wanted some opinions on it. I do plan on overclocking it eventually but I probably wont get a cpu cooler for it right away though

You would be better off with this.

The 7950 gives better gaming performance for less.

Also, AMD Drinks wattage when overclocked.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Also, includes a CPU Cooler, and a good one at that.

Seems alright to me, however I like to get an APU and use Crossfire. Just a suggestion.

But even the 4300 wouldn't bottleneck anything, the Vishera CPU's are powerful chips.

You would only bottleneck a CPU like this if you paired it with a Athlon Dual core or something.

Your sorta cutting it on edge with that power supply. If I were you I would get a 750 WATT just to be safe. Your current one should be fine but it's not to much more money to get a bigger one

A higher end single GPU is always better than a Xfire/SLI build.

It performs better and stays cooler. Also the APU Xfired wouldn't even compete with the 760/7950 cards.

The maximum he would need for specs like that is 600, maybe 650 if he plans on OC'ing massively.

But the 600 will be perfect...
