Would only like as not sure how dual graphic cards work yet, as it will be the first time I build a computer. Thanks for advice

with AMD cards all you need is a compatible motherboard and you just need to enable it in the included software and done

with NVidia cards you need a compatible motherbaord but you need to plug in the SLI bridge that usually comes with the motherboard then you enable it in the software

Thanks for advice, but won't be doing much hard core gaming. Just want a good all rounder, that will last and also will have good tech.

the Cooler master V8GTS Is expensive choice for a non overclocked system

you could get a http://www.amazon.com/Be-Quiet-Silentwings-Cooler-LGA775/dp/B00HPX7J4K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1420135302&sr=8-1&keywords=dark+rock+pro

or something cheaper also go with a non K series Chip ( if your not over clocking) 

I personally dont like SLI or crossfire so going with the solo 980 would be my choice

and you only need a 750W PSU for this build also I would look at EVGA for your PSU they are just as nice and cheaper

What GTX 980 brand would you go with

[ELSknutson]

yes america

[ELSknutson]

What GTX 980 brand would you go with

what ever matches your build and the color of your case

personally I would go with the asus Strix verson for quietness and looks  or the gigabyte wind force card

Thanks

Going with a single 980 now is a good idea. In the future the 980 are going to drop in price so you will be able to pick up a second or 3 and still have a beast system ware as the dual 970 are good right now for the price in the future there is not much room to expand them.

and cross firing R9 series card is silly for the amount of heat and power they use for the performance
