Need some opinions

1. How Cooler Master Cosmos II actually work? Can one fit a whole block Tower CPU into it or does he/she just need to install it with few components such as HD, RAM, Graphic/Sound/3D Cards, a processor and a motherboard?

 

2. I'm planning on buying these and install them all at once:

 

- Intel® Core™ i7-990X Processor Extreme Edition (12M Cache, 3.46 GHz, 6.40 GT/s Intel® QPI)

 

- Intel® Desktop Board DX58SO2

 

- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680

 

- AMD Radeon™ HD 7970

 

- Kingston HyperX T1 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1866MHz CL9 DIMM

 

- Samsung Spinpoint F4

 

Will they actually work well together without any complications?

 

P/S: No negative comments please...

I don't think both Nvidia and AMD video cards can go together on the same motherboard, it has to be only one type. If there's SLI supported with two PCI-Express 2.0 slots, you can install up to two video cards of the same type/brand. Besides the latest fastest video card to be in the market is the AMD Radeon HD 7990.

 

The Samsung Spinpoint F4, which happens to be a 2TB hard drive, is a good hard drive, but I highly recommend Western Digital, since it has the fastest hard drives yet.

No, you won't be able to combine those two graphics cards.

If you search for your motherboard type and name, chances are high you might find a list of compatible graphics cards and RAM.

What do you mean "besides"?

Technically with a Lucid Hyrda 200 chip on the motherboard, it is possible to run multiple GPU vendors on the same board.
