Budget is $675, which can be stretched slightly, and requires shipping to Denmark. International stores are okay, prefer Danish stores. Suggestions, improvements, comments, etc please
Looks good to me - I wouldn't change anything.
Im looking for a gaming PC with a $700.00 budget. Can anyone tell me if this can play Garrys mod on maxed out video setting with no lag?

Go to your own thread mate
5800 series card I guess, or maybe even crossfire the 5770 with another one. Other than that you're good. Wait what's your RAM?
Dont cf 5770, if you want to cf get two 4890s.
[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;22149780]Wait what's your RAM?[/QUOTE] We have both DDR2 and DDR3 laying around. RAM is not an issue.
[QUOTE=derlicious;22151307]Dont cf 5770, if you want to cf get two 4890s. 5870.[/QUOTE] You make no sense. It is very hard to fit in a 58xx or a 5770 crossfire in a 675 dollar balanced build.
[QUOTE=FHamster;22153648]You make no sense. It is very hard to fit in a 58xx or a 5770 crossfire in a 675 dollar balanced build.[/QUOTE] Wait I'm confused, are those parts his leftovers or what?
[QUOTE=FHamster;22153648]You make no sense. It is very hard to fit in a 58xx or a 5770 crossfire in a 675 dollar balanced build.[/QUOTE] Guy above me said CF two 5770s and i was saying if you are going to CF anything it should be 4890s... As for the 5870, i was meant to be saying that in a steam chat window

5770s are slower than 4890s
[QUOTE=derlicious;22165408]5770s are slower than 4890s[/QUOTE] Sorry for the confusion guys. Apparently my first post to this thread caused some. I thought the specs he posted were his current ones, and I suggested that maybe he could crossfire the 5770 I thought he had with another one.
