Need advice for a build FX-8350

Hardware Hub Build a PC

CPU: AMD FX-8350;

MB: ASUS TUF SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0;

PSU: Corsair TX750M, 80 Plus Bronze.

HDD/SSD: SSD Kingston HyperX 3K 120GB SATA3 and Seagate Barracuda 3.5'' 1TB SATA3 7200RPM 64MB;

VGA: ASUS GTX660TI 2GB GDDR5/GTX660 (TI-DC2O-2GD5);

RAM: DDR3 Corsair Vengeance Black 8GB (2x4GB) 1866MHz CL9;

Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 412S;

Case: Aerocool Ultimate gaming X-PREDATOR X1 Black.

 

Basically it's for gaming. Gonna do some overcloaks. In a year i'm planing to buy another ASUS GTX660TI and +8GB of ram

What is wrong with it? Would this PSU be enough for two VGAs? Maybe another motherboard would be better for this build?

Thanks in advance!

OK.....first if its just for gaming and you're overclocking, go with a 7950 instead of the 660Ti, as you will get much higher FPS and have no need for the CUDA cores in the NVIDIA card.

And yes, that Corsair TX750M is easly enough for that system fully over clocked......but regards the future upgrade plan, 16gb ram will be over kill for just gaming, so save that money and put it towards the second GPU.

+1 everything else in your setup looks solid.

Then I have another question. What is the best manufacturer for making HD 7950? I can choose from ASUS, Sapphire, Gigabyte, MSI and Powercolor. And why it's better than others?

First, It comes down to who offers the output you need......if you just running one monitor  its not a issue as they all tend to have DVI, mDP and HDMIDisplay Outputs.

So then it come down to cooling, and I would tend to avoid the reference card design with just one fan, and look at some of the models with two or 3 fans as this will help keep the temps and noise down when you overclock.

If i was picking right now, id go with this Gigabyte 7950 Windforce:

What's your budget?

Well, I'm not from US like the most of you are. My budget converted to USD is around 1300-1350$.
