Krisnatharok Caveat Emptor Premium join:2009-02-11 Earth Orbit kudos:7	Ah hah, going with Intel finally? Save your money on the Hydro H55--the WCs aren't much better than air cooling until you go with the dual 120mm rad ones (H100). You may see slightly better temps if you put two Noctua 12s on the H55, but that can't be guaranteed, and the fans will set you back another $50. Why the GTX 560? -- Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

My friend has a twin froze3 3 card its quiet. how much better is it than the EVGA card. 2 fans, and bigger heatsink are always the best option. I thought you one of those guys that want to save money here and there.. So I link you the 1 fan one instead. =D If you spend any more on the cooling.. you might be close to a GTX 660 Ti version »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···14125441 You should check out their promo thing: »promotions.newegg.com/NEemail/ja···ing.html ps: the promo has the socket 2011 for the heatsink fan.. that one wont work. =P. But they do have promo code for windows 7 home, some ram, so check it out.

jchambers28 join:2007-05-12 Alma, AR	the price difference between the HX1050 and the HX850 only $40 difference between the 2. I spend the extra $40 and got the 1050 watt.

Krisnatharok Caveat Emptor Premium join:2009-02-11 Earth Orbit kudos:7	The 850 is overkill. For your build, you should have gone with the 600w. PSUs are more inefficient at much lower loads. You will probably operate, day-to-day, putting only 10% load on that unit. You're going to waste a lot of power. -- Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

I'd rather pay $20-$30 more for an I7 vs the I5.
