Upgrage Present System (Graphics)

Ok cool, i just thought if one is not in stock will get the other. Anyway im pleased from what ive leaned past few hours. Im knocking the Zees now and off to bed, but chat and futher research some more tomm.
Once again thx for all the info. Later
 
would just buy the 7970, gtx 680 is not much better then the 7970, could save a few bucks and use it on ssd or something :)
 
they both about the same price (gfx), and from the reviews ive read so far 680 for games and 7970 for compute.
i know its a tough decision, but seen i mostly game here at home, photoshop now and then, the 680 is very tempting and i goto say that TF II looks very sexy :)

DON'T BUY THAT RAM!
That is absurdly expensive RAM for such slow speeds! Secondly, don't buy 4x 2GB. Rather buy 2x 4GB!

Like you can get 2x 4GB DDR3 1600MHz 1.5V for under R600: http://www.wootware.co.za/g-skill-f...-5v-cl9-dual-channel-ares-desktop-memory.html
Here's the same RAM from LandmarkPC: http://www.landmarkpc.co.za/store/gskill-ares-240pin-ddr3-sdram-ddr3-1600-p-8277.html
Yes but will that ram be compatible with mobo (Intel DP45SG Skyburg), it was the only i could find that specifically sias it will work on my modo Corsair link
 
I usually don't bother checking the RAM compatibility list. There is a small chance that the high density 4GB modules won't work with your existing motherboard.

I'd recommend that you rather stick with 4GB RAM for now and upgrade to 8GB when you get a new motherboard & CPU. Or you can buy the RAM now and if it doesn't work you just keep it.
 
And what about this one MSI N680GTX Twin Frozr II OC GTX680
So its going to be a choice 680 mentioned above or this Club3D CGAX-7970 Radeon HD7970 3GB

As for the PSU - The Corsair Gaming Series GS600

And Memory Corsair CMP8GX3M4A1333C9 Dominator 8GB (4 X 2GB)

Want to try keep everything from the same shop!

Got until Monday to decide :)

I have another question, ive also got a UPS which im using with my PC here at home and question would it be ok, with all the hardware im ordering as quoated above?

My UPS specs:
MGE Sytems - Nova 600 AVR Serial
230V, 50-60Hz, 600VA, 360W, Automativ voltage regulation
