i dont understand why you are willing to spend $250 on a mobo but are getting a 460gtx. i would get a radeon 5870 or at least 5850.




Re: Thumbs up or thumbs down - Vandamguy - 09-06-2010

do want sata 3 and usb 3 for later

Re: Thumbs up or thumbs down - CaffeinePowered - 09-06-2010

I think this looks pretty solid, you can never go wrong with Asus for motherboards

Re: Thumbs up or thumbs down - Surf314 - 09-06-2010

I got that mobo but the premium and I love it. The only real difference I heard is the premium has some better heat sinks.

thanks but no. you're suggesting an AMD mobo

regarding graphics: this comp is for my dad who plays WoW and Torchlight, neither of which are going to need a 460 Tongue , if he wants to get into some serious gaming he can get another 260 and SLI it (if that's even nessecary)
22 inch monitor.

The emphasis is being put on severely low boot up times. Figured SSD + i7 will accomplish that.

Re: Thumbs up or thumbs down - Didzo - 09-06-2010

Get a better video card. Hot rig otherwise.



Re: Thumbs up or thumbs down - KorJax - 09-06-2010

I have a 460GTX and it's great  ???

Currently maxes everything I throw at it. Well okay Metro2033 I had to run with gimped AA otherwise it would run like ass but other than that it was good.

Metro2033 is sexy like Crysis in the manner that it rapes rigs if you try to run too much AA

460 runs cooler than the rest of the 4 series last I checked.
