Take this from a software prescriptive: Creative has no sound card drivers since 2007, you'd better off buying Asus Xonar, Turtle Beach, heck, throw more only for a DAC is way better investment.
Ram and mobo are fine, unless you want specific needs ( low voltage, better mobo with more features etc) _________________

Go for GTX 560Ti, it's better than the 6870. _________________

I already have a 500w psu.
Also I can't order online, so I have to get everything through best buy.
They don't have a gtx 560 in my price range, they only have a 570 with like 1.25gb ddr5 for $350 or something, which I might get if I can afford, otherwise I'll stick with the radeon.
One last question:
How important are fans?
Does it matter if I throw in one or two cheap ones or should I really invest in a better cooling system? |
