Aah, good insurance then if you're spending that much on an upgrade, many folks forget about the PSU.

bought a PCP&C 610 W PSU this morning. It had a newegg $100 discount so I got it for $99.00 I am holding off a bit for the rest of the components, but wanted to get that PSU before the discount disapeared. Too good a deal!
Also, looking at this video card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102759 |

Are you fond of ATI cards? Or is your MB for crossfire?

I was just wondering since nVidia seems to have the market on video cards right now. Don;t get me wrong, there are some that swear by the ATI cards. I have only owned one in my lifetime.
