[img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/aaa3.png[/img] This is my first ever build, so I have no idea if it would explode or something. Help is MUCH appreciated. Also, I feel like I may have forgotten something.
You forgot a processor.
and ram [editline]11:08PM[/editline] and optical drive [editline]11:24PM[/editline] hahahah are 3d glasses really necessary
and operating system
eww 250 also no RAM either [editline]03:34AM[/editline] and why did you cut out the prices
US or Canada?
i lol'd.
Oh shit, my bad. I accidentally cropped out the prices and a few components. Fix'd.
Seems filesmelt is down right now.
Anybody notice that the 3-d glasses cost 59 dollars.
Why would you possibly get that mobo? Get this combo: [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.273112[/url] and this video card: [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127430[/url] . [editline]05:20PM[/editline] This combo would be nice too, for case/psu [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.274100[/url] [editline]05:23PM[/editline] Alternatively, [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.265995[/url]

[editline]04:43PM[/editline] Any more helpful comments would be awesome.
You should get a 5770 instead of that gtx 260.
Yeah $20 cheaper, [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161306[/url] $159

But when DX11 gets it full advantage?
[QUOTE=S.T.O.R.M;18058788]But when DX11 gets it full advantage?[/QUOTE] Then he upgrades his card? You'd rather have a card that performs less vs a card that supports newer features? It's like getting an 8400GS over a Radeon x1950. Plus, you really think that there'll be that many games that require dx11 in the next 3 or so years?
The 5770 is still on beta drivers.
[QUOTE=lemongrapes;18058918]The 5770 is still on beta drivers.[/QUOTE] There's also no proof that performance will improve with driver updates. Who releases a card at retail with beta drivers anyway?

Or are you a first-timer troll?
[QUOTE=jmazouri;18064853]There's also no proof that performance will improve with driver updates. Who releases a card at retail with beta drivers anyway?[/QUOTE] ATI's 4000 series got better with each new driver.
[QUOTE=Quantuam VTX;18066904]ATI's 4000 series got better with each new driver.[/QUOTE] Same with every other fucking video card. Drivers do provide benefits.
