Looking to build a PC and am wondering if these are good buys/good components. I'm looking to build an i5 machine, if that's important.


MSI GeForce GTX 460 Fermi Cyclone OC1GB for $215 (CAD)
Crucial Ct64M225 64GB SS drive $70 (CAD)

2009 edition claims another soul

and those are both good buys, i was thinking of grabbing that same ssd at that same sale.

edit: though theyre also selling a MSI GeForce GTX 460 Fermi Hawk OC 780MHZ 1GB for 235. the 55 mhz of extra clock speed might be worth the extra $20? need an expert to answer that one.

Do the new wired black Xbox 360 controllers work with a PC? I know they're USB but do they really interface with a regular PC USB port or is it locker or something? Doesn't say anything about PC connecitivity on the packaging.

(EDIT) Fuck... wrong "I need a new PC!" thread. Sorry.
