*20 CAD for 3grams

lol? where I am it's 3grams for $20

Alright! Btw I'm going with the Antec 300 to save money... :| Thanks for the input everyone, I really appreciate it!

I would suggest myself getting the Radeon HD 5830 even though it will be a bit over your budget.sasdx

The person I'm getting this for doesn't mind graphics too too much, he just wants to be able to play games at really high frame rates

To save more money, do you think I should just scrap the idea of getting a Haf 992 + extra fan, or just getting a simple small, cheap case, like the Antec 300 ($53.99)?

I have a similar setup, if you wanna save money, you don't really need a 750watt. 600 or 650 will do fine. What is the computer going to be used for?5ssj

psu u do not need an extra fan for your case since haf has more than enough NLahren

I have a close friend whose father passed away when he as 14, but his father didn't die of a disease or something of that sort, he committed suicide, less than a week before his son's (my friend's) birthday. After that event my friend matured very quickly...I wonder what he thinks of the whole ordeal, but he seemed to take it very well, not letting it effect him too much on the outside. Every year I surprise him with a cake, along with a couple of friend to let him know he has people there for him :)

I've had two controllers since launch and they work fine...no battery or button issues here :?

You can't SLi two different cards together. You can run one as a graphics processor and the other as a PhysX card, but you can't run them both as graphics processors.

My recommendation, considering your situation is this: Get the Q6700, get a GTS 250, and keep your motherboard. Unless you have enough money to go for the new Intel sockets, don't buy a new motherboard.

Well, I used this board for a friend's build, and it seemed pretty good for such a cheap board. It might work for what you're looking for.

:O

I live in Orleans, Ottawa as well, and I've never actually been to this store, is it any good?
