Hi All,
Looking at setting up a new rig (will be used primarily for gaming), can spend around R20,000 or so. Am leaning towards i7 920 and HD4870X2 (or GTX295, is it worth the extra R500 or whatever?). I need some recommendations on motherboard and memory, as well as a case which is really good with cooling (but not using water). Not interested at all in overclocking or SLI/Crossfire. I don't need a monitor or peripherals, just the case and bits that go inside.
What say you?
