Oh I have a question; should this be okay for video rendering? Just casual gaming videos.

Whoaa... triple poster, use the Edit button next time, would be tidier. And yes, you can render videos with that rig.

That's weird. I can only see one.

I still see three, but it's okay.

It's more than enough for that although if that's all you're doing besides gaming, it's overkill.

There's also no point to getting the 290x over the cheaper 290.

You should also oc.
