I am considering a new system. I have decided following components.

CPU- Intel i5-750 @10K
Graphics -XFX Radeon HD 5750 XXX ED (single) @10K
RAM Kingston 1333 GHz 2x2GB. @5.8K [Suggest similarly priced better memory pls.]
Cabinet - Cooler Master 690 @6K


Now please tell me a good but not very pricey mobo for it that supports LGA 1156 socket. Asus is preferred but other brands also will do.

Do I need to buy extra cooler for the cpu?? Will 450 watts SMPS be sufficient for above setup?

Thanks in advance.

get HD5770 from Sapphire rather than XFX XXX Edition. what u getting a slightly bumped core & a well OC'd memory. not worth the extra cost when a HD5770 wil be noticeably faster than the same. also remember Rashi's super hopeless service when you think or talk about XFX. also Asus.

however as mobo's are less prone to going kaput, so Asus mobo can be purchased without loosing much sweat.

so for mobo, Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 @ 7k or Gigabyte GA-P55-USB3 @ 8.4k (USB 3.0). or ECS P55H-CM @ 5.5k (cheapest, however availability will take its toll).

memory, keep as it is or Corsair 4GB DDR3 1600MHz C9 Titanium @ 5.8k.

for cabby, u spending lot. get NZXT Gamma @ 2k. or NZXT M59 @ 3.8k.

ok so final piece is PSU. get Corsair VX450W. remember, no to Cooler Master Extreme Power PSU or sub par brands PSU even if they have rating of 600-800W.

will u OC? no, than cooler not needed. if you wish to do so, than a good HSF will be required. also a good mobo. not Intel original or ECS super cheap mobo.
