Building my first rig, ever :)

tl:dr

 

lolz who are you calling noob, don't be going there dude, i'm just saying what i think of it ok, everyone has the right to do that and what i typed earlier is what i stick too, if you don't agree, idc, mkay

 

I called you a noob because I actually said the PSU is ok...which is the accurate description..it is only OK as compared to a Corsair that is great. Considering is the one thing that can catch on fire in the case, Id save the 20 bucks on the CPU (negligible .2Ghz) and spend them to get a great PSU as opposed to and ok one...

 

Simple logic to me not because Im a so called by you corsair fanboy (reason I called you a noob)! And I based that on reading reviews on jonnyguru for both PSU and also based on owning both PSU.

 

Now if you read something else that can show me Im wrong I will be happy to educate myself and respect your opinion until then Ill stick to what I know..

 

To end this sorry I called you a noob it was out of line!

After reading about 40 pages of benchmark tests I have to come the conclusion that the HD 5770 doesn't even compare with the lower ended GTX 460 768mb. I'm going back to my EVGA super clocked 460 like before, and I believe it fits my mobo.

it should. Its heavy though and it gets really hot so make sure you have a nice flow since you are aircooling!!

i know that corsair is better, and i also said that the OCZ is ok, if i had the money i would've gone for a corsair too, but anyways ...

the 460 definitely beats the 5770 but 5770 will probably last longer by not over heating and exploding

it gets hot .. it doesnt overheat unless you have no fans on your case. The card is rated for temp over 100C!!! Think about it he could boil water, cook eggs and bacon this open a whole new world of opportunities!!

lol, ive always wanted to have a usb powered easy bake, i guess i can just use the GTX 460

Haters gunna hate, the max load of the GPU is like 60-70c

 

I know the mobo I have can support the 460 but is nvidia/amd compatible enough to make use of the both the card and the mobo? Also if I don't OC the mobo should I get the cheaper G.Skill ram that runs at 1333 mhz?

lol i think your all mixed up

 

go for the g.skill 1333 ram cause its imo the best ram for gaming, thats all you need to know.

if anymore is said you might get even more confused

Do explain, I just wanna know if its worth spending money if I plan to learn how to OC.

 

Question, the card I`m going to get for sure is http://ncix.com/products/?sku=54624&vpn=N460GTX%20Cyclone1GD5%2FOC&manufacture=MSI%2FMicroStar. The requirements say it needs 2-6pin PCIE slots. The mobo I`m now looking at is, http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=52500&vpn=880GMA-E45&manufacture=MSI%2FMicroStar

 

Will the card be compatible if the specs for the mobo are:

 

• 1 PCI Express 2.0 slot with x16 operation (PCI Express Bus SPEC V2.0 compliant)

• 2 PCI EXpress 2.0 slots (PCI_E4) with x4 operation (PCI Express Bus SPEC V2.0 compliant)

• 1 PCI slot, support 3.3V/ 5V PCI bus Interface.
