Thought I'd give an update. I bought an AMD Radeon HD 7950 a couple of months ago. The thing kicks ass.

Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950 3gb
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 ATX

I think you mean 7950. Anyway, I'm jelly to the max.

How is it that you have 0 posts yet this is a post...

Anyway, I'd be careful with that motherboard. It'll probably fail on you, MSI is garbage. Nice setup otherwise :)

If you had enough money for a 7970 and enough money to waste on 16gb of ram, why did you get an AMD CPU? That doesn't really make sense to me... Everyone knows Intel blows AMD out of the water when it comes to games (which I'm assuming you use your computer for because of the 7970) Should have gotten an Ivy Bridge i5 or i7, both of which would beat any CPU AMD has on the market for gaming.

Nope. the 7970 is the fastest GPU on the market.

beats the gtx 690 o.o?
http://www.hwcompare.com/12666/geforce-gtx-690-vs-radeon-hd-7970/
The GTX 690 isn't a single GPU, it's a dual GPU. IF anything, compare the GTX 690 vs the Radeon 7990, which is also a dual GPU. Dual GPUs tend to have a lot of problems though and aren't really needed or practical. The 7970 is the fastest single GPU on the market.

I don't like Intel based on the fact that they tried to monopolize AMD out of the market and got sued and lost over in Europe. I personally don't like buying an Intel cause most of the good mobos for a Sandy or Ivy are also twice what I paid for the AMD one. Granted there is cheap mobos and expensive mobos for everything but why go cheap if you get intel.

As for the MSI bit, the Gigabyte and Asus mobos were out of stock and wasn't many good ones out yet. Plus I have yet to have an MSI mobo fail on me personally. I haven't had any parts fail on me yet in a few years.
