Wow why don't you listen to us? This is your third thread and yet you STILL try to force us to let you get a 5770. Get the GTX 460 damnit. If you don't listen to us the third time you might as well get off Facepunch.

[Big D Duchovny]

Just get the fucking GTX 460. You're the most persistent GPU-brand related fanboy I've ever met.

OK!

Ill use the 460 if it pleases you that much.

Also, how about helping slightly next time? You can have a rant at me if you want but if you dont help then its a pretty useless post.

Get a GTX 460, it's faster and the same price. There's really no reason why you would need a card of either brand.

[QTom]

How about this:

Better.

Would that have enough power to add another 6870 later? Also I noticed that the one I had chosen in that pic didnt support crossfire, I found 1 pretty much the same but modular and with crossfire support.

Also, how can you really tell if a PSU has enough connectors for everything you want? Like, the 6870s use two 6 pin connectors. So... do you just use any 6 pin slots on the PSU or do they have to be especially for GPUs / PCI-E ?

[Big D Duchovny]

It won't since it doesn't have 4 6-pin connectors.

I did help you. I recommended to you the best GPU for your price range: GTX 460.

Also: Can someone explain what all this means?

[quote]20+4 Pin

1 x 4+4pin CPU +12V
5 x 4pin Molex
2 x 6+2pin PCI-E Power
2 x 6pin PCI-E Power
1 x FDD Power
9 x SATA Power[/quote]

So... could I use this for dual 6870s? (2 6pin connectors each)?

And when it says "x+y pin" Like "6+2pin" Does that mean that its 2 wires, 1 with 2 pins on the end and 1 with 6 pins on the end, and can be used as a 6 pin (and just leave the 2 pin hanging out) OR an 8 pin?

Thanks

[FINLEY]

Yes it has enough PCI-E adaptors for two 6870s. The 6+2 part means it has one wire with 6 pins and another with two pins so that it can be used as both a 6 pin and an 8 pin adaptor

haha OP have dumbest avatar I have ever seen

Thanks, thats probably the clearest answer to a question I have had on here.

I may appear stupid to you, but thats because I know nothing about this subject, hence the reason I am asking. I can guarantee there are things I know that you do not and you would look stupid when trying to learn it. Grow the fuck up.

[FINLEY]

Also get this monitor

Digimate are crap

Yeah I knew it was crap. I looked at and preferred that one but the other one had speakers. I use a headset most the time, but I want speakers D:

Also: Just opened the old family PC which is broken. SO. FUCKING. DUSTY. I doubt its been cleaned in the 6 or 7 years we've had it. Also SO OLD. The GPU doesent have a fan or need its own power cable and the back of it was covered (I mean covered) in dust. You couldnt see the green chip through all the dust XD

So, you hate yourself? Get rid of that now, make it a clean post.
