I haven't played Deus in long time.. Probably just needs an update. I'm defiantly going to get Dishonored when it comes out. At this point I just mainly need to know is upgrade worth it? Is the GTX 570 going to be pretty obsolete in another 6 months? I'm better off just waiting?

Batman AC and Deus cant use em in DX11. Major FPS drops! I also just download Metro (great buy $4.99)

Im kind of disappointed in GTX 570 performance with DX11 games. I got a couple gift cards for Micro center thinking about upgrading to Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950. Ive heard nothing but good things about this card. Ive also read the performance boost will be any where from 30-50% faster depending on the game. My MB has PCI 3.0 express and supports Crossfire. This will give good upgrade options for later down the road. Ive havent used a Radeon (ATI) card in years, so this is new territory for me. Thoughts?

I'm thinking about picking it up myself. I'm real hesitant because of reviews. Everyone seems to be complaining about how bad the port is.

Pic isn't final build. I've since improved cable management. Got rid of center bay for better air flow. I gotta say I'm really happy with this build. Just upgraded the case last week. Love HAF 912 great case for the money!

Just got a HAF 912 great case! Should I go with a 1 x 200mm fan or 2 x 120 mm sickle fans in front of the case?

I've heard so much bad stuff about razer products breaking.

kraken2109

I wouldn't worry about it to much. They come with 2 year manufacture warranty. So many people got them that there bound to get bad feedback. My G5 broke after 2 years, but I put the mouse threw hell and back. Spilt beer on it threw it across the room playing SC..

^^ I think you made a good choice. I just tried out 4 gaming mouse's (G500, Deathadder, Sensei, Rat 7) for BF3. I ended up going with Deathadder. What sold me was shape, position of side buttons, and software. The software was best of bunch. Extremely easy to set up. I love the fact that it automatically sets a profile when you go into a game (real slick Razer).
