AMD Phenom II x4 2.8ghz (830) http://www.newegg.co...N82E16819103993
8gb (1333) Ram
2 XFX Radeon 6770s http://www.newegg.co...N82E16814150540
Biostar TA990FXE motherboard (AM3+) http://www.newegg.co...biostar%20990fx
PCIe slots are x16, x16, x4 so 2 video cards are being fully used (to my knowledge)
just wondering if this will be decent or if upgrading will make it so I can run at ultra settings with decent fps
which do you think should be a priority?
CPU, or GPU?

i've heard a lot of bad things about them and a lot of good but never really asked anyone that owned one..
have you experienced any leaking or anything like that that would screw your system?

my case (coolermaster storm scout) can support up to like a h80, but I keep reading horror stories about "anti freeze" smell coming from someones computer and it being from the water cooler...
I can't really overclock my CPU just because either:
A: stock cooler cant handle it and I get blue screens
B: I have a locked processor and get blue screens anyway
C: the auto overclocker that Biostar comes with isn't that great and I get blue screens..
I had my processor at like 3.4-3.5 I think.. with the auto overclocker.. but I kept getting blue screens.. I finally said screw it and put everything back to stock..
I never really got into overclocking.. wouldn't mind it though..

COD MW3 uses about 75-80% of all my cores according to my g19 logitech performance monitor..
always like a second opinion.. especially with people that are around on these fourms.. like Vulp (can't spell the rest of his name off hand).
I notice him around all the time on these fourms giving advice.
and usually the more I read, the more I freak and get paranoid about getting something and regretting it later..
