    Re: Building a computer? Need advice/suggestions? Come here!

    I'm suddenly curious, looking at PlasbianX's new build... I'm thinking getting some new components, so I'd like to know if you guys think my power supply could handle a Phenom II quad core (say, 125W processor), 4GB of DDR2 800 and... a 5770 or 5870. It's an OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W power supply with two 12v 25A rails (I think both the 6 and 8 pin PCIe power connectors run off the second 12V 25A rail and everything else that requires 12 volts runs off the first).

    Would it run said components happily with no worries, or should I back off from the idea of a 5870 (above my budget anyhow) and just buy a 5770?

    Get the 5850 if you are looking for a 5800 series card, and are on a lower budget, I have it, and its beautiful in game, gives about 60 fps in bc2 maxed out 4xaa 8xaf 1680x1050 all on high

    700W is more than sufficient for that. You could probably get away with as little as 550W. I also happen to agree with Pyong: 5850 is a good compromise. The 5770 performs like a 4870 (which is not bad by any measure), but costs more.

    Re: Building a computer? Need advice/suggestions? Come here!

    Hi, should I bother upgrading my computer peripherals/accessories:




    to something like the Logitech G500, the Logitech G9, or Logitech LS11 or the Logitech LS21?? Although my current components still work, I don't know whether to conserve money or not as I am out of money right now and I honestly don't know if any of these are a good deal taking in consideration the deadlines, rebates, other retails/e-tails...

    Both of those speaker sets are below average, don't produce very nice sound at all (a couple of mates have a set). At the very least i'd go for something like the logitech X-230 set. They're pretty cheap and produce good sound unless you like it on full blast where you completely lose the midrange. But looking at your current speakers I guess anything'd be an improvement :x
