      Hmmm, I’m not sure about bad@ss CPU’s, I’ve only ever measured the cheapest CPU I could buy for a particular Mobo.

      Also need to check what kind of cables are coming out of your PSU, you got enough ports to power 3 PCIe GPU’s? The 270x’s have 2 x 6 pin female plugs to power the card…

        I’ve got 2 x GTX 460 both with 2x 6 pins in there at the moment. The PSU only provides 2 x 6pin, the other two I used 2x 2 Molex to 6pin converters.

        Again, that’s another reason why I was looking at the 750ti, I’d only be looking at 1x 6pin per card. I figured an optimistic 900kh/s for the investment of 3 cards at £130 ish each was pretty reasonable versus the £500+ and a new PSU for looking at the AMD camp. I need the lowest investment possible to get me out of the blocks.

        Thanks for your help BTW, it’s greatly appreciated.

            Thanks,

            I’m making up to business proposals before I apply to the bank of SWMBO. On the AMD side, I would go with the Toxics on your recommendation, but on the videa side, is there any preference between ASUS, Gigabyte and EVGA who all have power plugs?

                  No idea about NVIDIA cards mate, on brand alone, Asus make really good kit so perhaps them.

                      LoL, I’ve maxed out every credit card and taken a loan out, but ROI is 2 months so I’m happy…
