CPU or GPU: These don't match. The 480 will absolutely eat away at your CPU and your CPU will basically bottleneck your games because it can't keep up, even when overclocked. I know the 965 is the most bang for your buck, but if you are going with a 480 get something that doesn't spit in its face. At the very least get a i7-930 and overclock that at the least. Or if you like the 965 so much get a gtx 460 instead of a 480.  I'd suggest at the least an i7-930 overclocked to wrangle the beast that is the 480. Of course then you should get some triple-channel RAM.


I have a 5870 with a Q6700 :P
