Kingdomkey01 0 #6 Posted May 26, 2011 GeForce.. You're spending $1,000 for graphics card. You can easily match that by crossfiring two AMD cards. There's no need for anybody to have two graphics cards for one grand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'll need good internet too for a gaming rig. You'll need a 1200W+ Power suppler which is another $130+. You're wasting your money if you need this for a home gaming rig.
