1. I suggest a different brand video card - Asus, Diamond, or HIS - and look at the 6xxx series cards.

2. Suggest a WD Black SATA 6.0 hard drive.

3. Suggest a Corsair, Seasonic, or Antec Earthwatts PSU, and if you are going to Crossfire, buy only certified power supplies.

Certified Power Supplies

Click on "Details" to make sure it's certified for 2 of the cards you choose.
