I'm looking to build a new computer, I already have 2 4870s I can use for crossfire, and 4 gigs of ram (6400). So I need: Harddrive (1TB) Dvddrive CPU (I was thinking an i5 but there might be a better price/performance amd) Case Mobo (Needs to have crossfire capability) PSU (Needs to be enough for both cards) [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139006[/url] Budget is ~600$ It's my first computer build aswell.
Have you got a SATA cable lying around? You could save a few bucks by buying a OEM one. Mobo?:[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131402&cm_re=asus_motherboard-_-13-131-402-_-Product[/url]
I have no sata cables. [editline]03:34PM[/editline] and I don't think that mobo supports ddr2 6400
[QUOTE=EliteGuy;19199716]I have no sata cables.[/QUOTE] Make sure to buy a retail one then.
Motherboards come with SATA cables...
