you hardly need the HD 5770 for gaming at that resolution ... i would also suggest a corsair psu or a cooler master silent pro over the extreme power plus.

1055 T @ 9850

Ram @ 5600

Hd 5770 @ 9800

H50 @ 4300

Hdd @ 2100

MX2 @ 350

HAF 922 @ 6600

Asus M489GTD @ 11,200.00

@ 49800

+ Dell 20" - S2009W @ 7000

this would be a good option for you to look at.
 
if i add a psu budget will stretch to 60k..

so which card to get for that resolution??

or should i forget the thuban,get a cheaper proccy and buy a 5770 and the 20"
 
would be better if you get a x3 or a x4 for now ... 6 cores not gonna be used in games atm ... you can get a x3 BE for cheap and unlock it and have some fun and year down the line pickup a better x6 .
 
sorry for the late replies as my posts are being reviewed...

so wat do you suggest a 555 or a 720?

which has better chance of unlocking...??

555 or 720 rs 5000 / rs 7000

m4a89gtd pro/usb3 rs 11000

h50 rs 4500

haf 922 rs 6500

cooler master 650w 4500

4g ram 5500

hdd 2200

gpu 10000

total 44700/46700

so i can get a monitor of about 9000-10000

suggestions please....

and won't the dual core or triple core be bottleneck??
 
Why not buy the AMD Athlon II X4 635 instead ? Costs 4.9k IINM . Also any special reason for a 890gx based mobo ? Seems pretty expensive to me . You can get a 785G based mobo with USB3 for ~ 5k , also get a 1TB HDD instead of 500GB as the diff is hardly 1.5k
 
so the build is as follows

1055t 10000 (i really want the six cores..bragging ...)

mobo 11000

corsair 4gb ddr3 1333 5600

psu 4500 (will 550tx be ok for 5770 crossfire?) or should i take 650w cooler master

mx-2 350

h50 4500

hdd 3500 (7200.12 1tb)

odd 1000 (any)

gpu msi r5770 hawk 10000

case haf 922 6500
i think ill buy the monitor after some time

any suggestions??

i dont think that biostar overclocks well..

and is that 550w enough for 5770 crossfire?

i thought of something hows this

555 be 5000

msi 890gxm-g65 7200 or something else in same price range that overclocks well

hdd 3400

msi hawk 10000

haf 922 6500

ram 5600

beng 22inch 7650

h50 4500

corsair tx650w around 6000

hows this any changes to be made??
 
Man instead of HD 5770 in crossfire better is go for a single HD 5850 as the overall power draw also gets reduced and the performance is roughly same and yes the Corsair VX 550W should be sufficient for both the CrossfireX and single 5850 setups, but if you are doubtful even still go for the TX650 at your discretion

:lol: You recommend core i-7 860 with a Intel H-55 bare bones mobo and then a HD5850 and run it on a AMIGO PSU.

To top it u suggest the OP to O.C i-7 860 to 3.8GHz-4GHz with that Intel H-55 mobo and Amigo PSU and a HD5850 on board. Wah!!! Must be a international records of sorts.

Wonderful suggestions :rofl:
