Here is my following future build for gaming, torn between a 7950 and the 3850 until I can get an 8800. I will be buying these parts from the US, prob newegg with their good prices and serv. Biggest concern is if the that PSU is sufficient on running this rig in SLI with 8800s later on down the road. I'm also worried if the mainboard will accept a single 3850 but I don't see why not. I wanna overclock my proc when I need to and later add two 8800's to make SLI. I am aiming for future proof on a $860 budget for now Tell me what ya think, I am open to suggestions. Thanx again and Take Care.
