P67 pro3 b3

[pcfanatic]

Hello everyone , I have a few questions that I really hope you can answer me . I was a PC gamer 7 years ago until I bought consoles ( Worst decision I´ve made) , so now I want to revive old glories with a good rig.

So , I am a little bit rusty in terms of building PCs , so I am a little lost about some things.

The first thing is : does the P67 pro3 b3 from ASRock obviously , is compatible with the Saphire Radeon Hd 6870 1 GB?

Here is the link to the MB : http://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B004R9PCNK/ref=ox_sc_act_title_5?ie=UTF8&m=A1AT7YVPFBWXBL

Yes as you see it´s in Spanish , so I am sorry , is that I live in Spain and it´s the only way I have to get that MB.

Also , what PSU should I use for this MB , GPU and an Intel i5 2500k with 8 gb ram from kingston ddr3 and 500gb 5400 rpm? I mean in W.

Please answer soon .

Thank you!

Dude thanks for the blacklist , I was going to buy a Lc . Now I will buy a thermaltake of 550w.


Thanks again.

You can do a lot better than buying a Thermaltake psu.
My preference is to buy power supplies made by Seasonic.
Check psu reviews from the following sites: JonnyGuru, HardOCP, HardwareSecrets, Pcper and TechPowerUp.
Their reviews are very thorough and they perform extensive psu tests.
Mid level power supplies from Antec, Corsair, Seasonic and XFX will be excellent.
There are some other brands that provide excellent quality and value.
There are many name brands that are not very good.
