New build and p55 motherboard query
hey guys first post here xD
im planning on building a new pc soley for gaming and maybe some movie watching. here are the specs:
CPU - core i5 750
Mobo - Asus P7P55D
RAM - Corsair XMS3 (d3-1600)
GPU - Power colour HD 5870
Harddisk - Seagate 1T
PSU - Antec 550W true power
what do you guys think? budget not a big problem.
also a question on the whole 2 pcie 2.0 but only one 16x lane or something really confusing. does it affect performance on single gpu or just for crossfire?

if budget is not a problem:
CPU - core i7 860
Mobo - Asus P7P55D-E Premium (SATA Gen 3 and USB 3.0)
RAM - Cheapest you can find, unless you REALLY want to overclock, as long as voltage is under 1.65V
GPU - Cheapest HD 5870
Harddisk - Intel X25-M Gen 2 SSD (OS + Apps) + 2x Cheapest 1Tb HDDs you can find and raid-1 them (storage)
PSU - Corsair TX 650W
And if you want to overclock, add a thermalright MUX 120 or thermalright ultra 120 (if those come in 1156 editions yet)
should be good to go
