Uh Hello? Respond to my last message.

:( man... Switch the button right next to your ear and get that list together yourself. Just combine the two lists you posted last and decide on the things that are redundant (i.e. the monitor). Also, go for this PSU here, for example: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16817194035.

SLI though remember we thought was kinda well complicated in that I told you I know little about hardware. Being visually impared that is why I am getting a tech of mine to assemble it. You also said NVIDA or something that will be compatible with the rest of it. It doesn't have to be NVIDA. But a motherboard that will work well and be compatible with the rest of this. I've taken the lits of what you said I should combine and combined them. I hope this is a good setup. Again I don't know thatyou guys do.

That looks very solid.

That setup gets my complete approval.

There is nothing complicated about SLI if you don't build the rig yourself (and not even then, if you know what you're doing). All it means is that the computer can have TWO graphics cards that cooperate for more performance in games. In your case SLI is not an issue since you have one graphics card. But it makes it possible for you to easily upgrade your computer later, if you wish to get more performance out of it: just add another card.

Ah I see. Thank you very much. For the graphics card so I can prepare for the future of getting the driver updaes ca you please give me a link to the drivers page of that card? Also, when there is a new driver update will I always have to uninstall hte prior driver, run driver sweeper in safe mode, and install the new driver? Or just update and not uninstall the prevous driver?

Nvidia uses ONE driver package for ALL their graphics cards, no matter if you have one graphics card or two (or more) in a SLI setup:

This is the reason why it's so easy. Just download their latest driver, follow the instructions and you're done.
