Thanks wrench and thanks Dark, very useful answers!
The power supplied i chose to go for is a corsair 750W, as it has the best reviews and i heard these things have a nice power output.
Since the GTX 285 looks nice on the benchmark side too, not forgetting is the best single GPU card out there, i guess ill go for that.
It would be great to go for the GTX 285 from EVGA, but in my honest opinion, i think they priced it way too high, i mean it costs nearly as much as a GTX 295 from Gigabyte!
Maybe i was just looking at a bad retailer who charges too much for the EVGA cards, but ill have a look again somewhere else and ill compare it to both of the shops/retailers to see.
If the GTX 285 is too expensive, is it a good idea to go for the GTX 275?
I also saw a pretty low priced GTX 260 SSC (supersuperclocked?) would this be worth going for? please dont forget i want to play crysis on top settings with 1680x1050 res.
PS: Thanks for the long, helpful and detailed answers, I appreciate it
