Thank you for your help and have happy holidays!

 

Hi kxzz4.Welcome to CHF.

Dalo,our Specialist in this area should be along shortly to advise you.

Ask you to be patient for a short time.

 

It's all top end kit, but the price tag will be too, I expect anything from £1000 to £2000+ for that lot.

What you have to remember is that while it may be all singing and dancing now, in 6 months it will be old (and worth a fraction of what you paid for it)

I personally recommend that from a 'budget' and 'bang per buck' point of view that you forget SLI/Crossfire setups (as these very rarely add more than 20% performance increase and cost around £300-400 for the privelage)

12GB of RAM, no 'real world application' other than servers use this much RAM, stick to 6GB
again you pay a massive premium for more and there are currently NO games that support the use of this much RAM

It all comes down to what you want to spend, If you want I can spec you a system on a budget but that would mean building the system yourself (again I would recommend this anyway as you save cash, and you actually build the system yourself)

I have some pictures in my albums of PC building and thats all there is to it really.

Let us know a budget and I will spec you something

 

Sure if you wouldl ike to spec somthing i would appreciate that. Now i also have a question i have the duel video cards... and a motherboard with 2-way SLI support. Now im planning on running 2 monitors sometimes. My question is on the site thats building it it ask's :
Xtreme Performance in SLI/CrossFireX Gaming Mode Supports Single Monitor
or
Non-SLI/Non-CrossFireX Mode Supports Multiple Monitors

Now i was under the assumtion that now all you had to do was go to your video card setting and turn SLI on. Am i wrong? Because i want to used duel screen but there will be certan times id like to put SLI on. Is this an option and does it matter with one of these i chose in that case?

Thank you again for your time in helping.

 

Sprry for the double post, my budget is 3000 to 3500 US i just know you guys are busy and kinda want to get all my questions out of the way quickly im also confused about power protection. They give me 5 choices:

OPTI-UPS VS575C 575VA/345W Uninterrupt Power Supply [+46]
OPTI-UPS ES1000C 1000VA/700W Uninterrupt Power Supply [+149]
OPTI-UPS ES1500C 1400VA/980W Uninterrupt Power Supply [+189]
Ultra ULT31502 UPS 1000 VA 600W AVR Backup [+120]
Ultra ULT33046 UPS 2000 VA 1200W AVR Backup Digital Display [+215]

Now i have a 800 watt power supply and i see wattages on these... Do they need to mach up or does it have to be more then 800w. Should i even bother buying one of these from the site? Thanks in advance.

 

To make life easy for you Dalo, that budget translates to between 1900 and 2200 Stirling. I suspect that the buying power is a bit better here.
