CPU/PC upgrade questions (because Phenom II X4 965 on sale today for 70 bucks, cheapskate gamer edition)

Good grief.
I can see why the modular cable power supplies are popular now.
This was like trying to braid Medusa's hair.

Wow- big difference in performance between the HD 5670 and the HD 6950!
I finally have enough power to take advantage of direct X 11.


Edit.. Spelling. Thought typing power and to as one word meant I wanted pimento? Really?
Gawd dang auto spell correct on smart phones. Sigh.

Lucky you don't have a window. Just wad them up and stick them at the end of the PSU. Should be out of the way enough. I have not bought a non modular since I experienced the benefit of not having unused cables. So nice.


Now you need more monitors to take advantage of your power. eyefinity for you. My brother has an eyefinity setup with 3x 20" 4:3 and its awesome. I have a 27" so for me to eyefinity I need some serious power. Like 6990 power. That costs too much I think. I guess I could do with 2 vertical side 1920x1080 and be okay. Not perfect match but close enough.

Can you do eye infinity with side monitors a different size than the main monitor?
My main is a wide screen 24" 1080p, but I have slso have some Standard format LCD monitors ( bought cheap from Ebay to use as extra monitors with my Laptop and home PC for work applications.)
