This is my first time building a pc. Ive done a lot of research and im pretty sure this is all good and will work fine. But just to be sure, please someone who knows a lot about the subject check this all over for compatibilty etc.
Also, I should be able to add another HD 6870 at some point yes? (and I know the 2 slots drop to x8 and x8 when in crossfire.

Thanks.
Also: I am already at my max budget, please dont suggest adding anything else as I really cannot get any more expensive, and I already have a mouse :3
PSU is a bit over kill, I would go 700W-750W, 850W at most.

:D
That PSU was pretty much the only one I could find which has 4 6pin PCI-E connectors. (I want to add another 6870 some time.)
Thanks though :D
I think you get a molex->6 pin with the 6870.

Yes I believe you are right. But I still want to make everything last as long as possible. Its not really worth the £10 or so I would save by getting a weaker one.

Hmmm. That one looks good but its more expensive and not modular. I really want a modular one. Ill stick to mine. Thanks anyway.
Would also get this HDD.

that PSU looks pretty shit
[url]http://www.dabs.com/products/xfx-650w-xxx-edition-single-rail-power-supply-6CN5.html[/url] cheaper, far more trustworthy and still easily capable of 2 6870s
and change to the spinpoint F3 above
