Just wondering if people would make any adjustments from this build the processor is all I'm set everything else I will consider changing.
I want my pc to stay cool and QUIET a silent gaming rig is what I'm looking for.
So here we go:
Phenom 695 BE X4 3.4ghz
Gigabyte ga990fxa ud5
800w thermaltake tr2
Xfx radeon Hd 7950 3gb
1tb barracude
64 crucial m4 for windows 7os
16gb corsair vengeance
Fractal design R4 the brand new version made for a silent rig!! With extra 140mm silent r2 fan.
Thermaltake water 2.0 liquid cooler
Peripherals
Razer black widow ultimate
Razer death adder
Razer vespula
My old astros a40 headset
Asus247h 23 inch monitor
Obviously has no effect on rig but if people have better options let me know. Using death adder because it's the only left handed gaming mouse I could fine.
Will I be able to run bf3 on ultra settings?
Is the cooling adequate?
Power supply strong enough?
Quick responses are greatly appreciated

for reference, i can run BF3 on ultra settings at 1600x1200, on my old monitor, and 1920x1080 on my new monitor with no problems - using the rig in my signature. in situations with tons of smoke, movement, movement (both near/far) and many physics calculations it can sputter. in 95%+ of the gameplay experience there's no discernable framerate slowdowns.
yours should have no problems.
800w should be okay for what you have. adding any additional GPUs i would reconsider, but i'm cautious. cooling should be plenty...stock coolers are fine unless you plan on considerable overclocking adventures.

ThermalTake TR2 series are using TAEPO capacitors, I am _not_ a fan of those. Consider using an OCZ, Corsair, Seasonic power supply...
