    Hey guys,

    What do you think of this combination?
    Is the graphic card too powerful for the CPU or is it alright?

    Any better suggestions?

    I think they are perfect, but I would recommend GTX460, since it's cheaper, newer, and almost as fast.

    Really depends on what you play, but if you really play 3D games a lot, the CPU is quite irrelevant. Even a fast Core 2 Duo is good enough.

    i5 750 is the best quad core processor for the money, if not, you can consider i3 530 instead.

    Oh.. I get you know. He went ahead and bought the CPU + motherboard without buying the graphics card. :D
