HEY GUYS IM TRYING TO BUILD?
Deacon:
I still support the radeon 6770, thats just me though. Can always upgrade in the future but to keep cost down its quite efficient.

That shit is expensive man.

--- Quote ---Also, I've decided what my gfx is gonna be. At least Im gonna get some help from my loved ones AT LEAST WITH THE GRAPHICS CARD and get the GeForce GTX 580.. there's no way I can afford that shit on my own. So basically I'm buying everything but this.

Oi why do you want to 580 T_T Its twice the price of the 570 for the exact same performance. Its nVidias "special kid" card, for those who have tons of money and grams of brain matter.
What toaster said about the 6950, indeed cheaper, but then there was the 550, this.
--- Quote ---HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH... LOOKED AT THE PRICE AND NEVERMIND FUCK THAT SHIT MAN... EVEN IF IM GETITNG HELP IT STILL HURTS ME DEEP DOWN THAT ITS 500 BUCKS ON NEWEGG.

Good, 580 sucks. ^_^

600 would cut it but Id still recommend the one I suggested, simply because it allows upgrading later. 600w would be cutting it a little close if devie wants to some day throw in a second gpu. Its a plenty good PSU if devie knows no upgrading will be done though, seeing as its 20 dollars cheaper. Depends I suppose

changes:
I switched the PSU from 800 watt to 750watt.

ALSO, might be switching up ram from 8gb to 12gb again. For future purposes.
Still not sure about the GFX and still not sure about the mobo although we're looking at that now..
ALSO, a good friend is gonna help me out with the OS so I don't have to spend 500 dollars on that shit.
ALSO, the monitor, im buying two at once because, well its 19 inch brohams.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371051 - PSU - Cheaper and pretty much the same. c:
As for 12GB memory... Well triple channel tends to be more expensive, and offer no real increase in performance. If you ever need to upgrade your memory, buy a second set of memory for 16gb total. It would cost the same as getting 12gb. Though 8GB will last a while into the future still.
as for the mobo, Asus, and support am3, and you cant really go wrong
Devie:
SO FAR THIS IS WHAT IT IS.
IT COSTS ABOUT $882.93 EXCLUDING SHIPPING AND GFX CARD.
I might be able to get my father to buy the motherboard and gfx for me in order to help out since he wanted to buy me an OEM in the beginning but I declined.
So without the motherboard and gfx (since father is paying for that) we're looking at around 750 or so including shipping. Which isnt bad at all. But I didn't count the 2nd monitor either.. If I did it would be around $830-850 including shipping. Sorry Im guesstimating the shipping.
EDIT: decided to change the monitor from two 19inches to just one 22inch monitor. and with that. the total would be $810-820 including shipping but excluding motherboard and gfx card because father still might buy that. its a little better than what it was. So yeah, everything looking good so far.
ALSO, thinking about getting this for GFX.. (CONSIDERING GETTING TWO OF THESE...BUT I DONT KNOW YET)

TOTAL OF THE WHOLE THING: $1,160 including shipping. NOTE I GUESSTIMATED THE SHIPPING
TOTAL OF WHAT I'M PAYING FOR: $850 including shipping NOTE I GUESSTIMATED THE SHIPPING
TOTAL OF WHAT MY FATHER IS PAYING FOR: $360 including shipping NOTE I GUESSTIMATED THE SHIPPING
