for stock settings, you can use stock cooler, it's sufficient and yes the FSP Raider 650W is a very good PSU

Currently choosing between r9 280x or gtx760
I heard that amd is working mantel technology that make gpu work at console efficiency
Do I need to sacrifice my cpu to get that ...

Thanks for the reply guys. I tought ASUS is a good brand and worth to buy.Tatz y picked ASUS MOBO n GPU

Psst,you don't need a Z87 motherboard unless you are Overclocking..
I saw someone's signature on the forum,he has an i3 with a Z87 mobo..

Asus Mobo and gpu are overpriced. But they do have a sexy smexy killer red looking fan for their gpu

Lol yeah, wasn't paying attention to everything, Thanks!

Ayee,remember this?Better isn't it?

Haha,no problem!

MSI 750 OC

Actually, Asus GPUs tend to be more expensive, but it is often for a good reason. They are usually very solid, have superb cooling solution and an extra year of warranty from what we usually recommend here.

It's sad that our local pricing for Asus is on the high side here, hence most of the time we need to stick to recommending those more affordable brands like Sapphire, Leadtek or Gainward. But if there is very marginal difference in pricing compared to Asus, then the choice is really clear.

Yea I heard that Asus cooling is one of the best other than EVGA. They also have superb oc'ing capabilities right?
