I will be reusing my case and the Velociraptor and other drives for the build. This is what I am thinking of buying.

Re: System I am looking to build
Not sure why you'd opt for an AMD processor, Intel has been on top a few years now. Price?

Re: System I am looking to build
The AMD cpu arnt bad just because there not the best doesnt mean they are terrible and yes AMD systems have and will stay some of the best budget systems you can make unless we see some major price cuts on the intel side

Re: System I am looking to build
Do you think the Corsair 620watt psu I have would be enough to power that set up?

Re: System I am looking to build

Re: System I am looking to build
Should be OK I think. That 620 is a nice supply.
I have a 9850, 3870 on a DFI 790fx board running on a 500w antec supply, even games some.
Did you have that MB originally? I missed it, sorry."Angels on the sideline, Puzzled and amused.

When you saw it I had the 790GX MB in it then after reading your post I switched it. Originally Posted by undersea

Re: System I am looking to build
Sweet to win a system! I like the superior multitasking abilities of my Quad Q9300 over my amd3400+ setup. Originally Posted by Eldest_One

That Corsair 620 wt psu will be more then sufficient to power the new rig I would think, they have some nice power supplies.

Re: System I am looking to build
You can get the Phenom 9950 for $215 from Newegg until 8-25 with promotion code EMCAJBKBH. I recently built a system with the 9950 and really like it. I used the Asus M3A32-MVP. However I like the idea of the 750 SB. I don't know if was available when I built my system. I am powering my system with the Corsair 620 with no problem. I am using a Radeon 3870.
