Computer Parts Options

[Mikesshunk]

Well, my rig is just about done but I need just a few more parts.

Sometime today or tomorrow, I'll be getting a processor. I'm more or less set on either the Phenom II X4 3.4Ghz Black Edition or the X6 2.8Ghz.
Price isn't really any issue between them, but I'd like to know which one would likely perform better.

Secondly, I'm gonna need a new video card. I'd like to have something powerful enough to handle most any game you throw at it. Eventually, though, I'd like to add another card or two in Crossfire. I'm looking to spend no more than $350 tops. I'm just not thinking my old card will cut it. It's an old PCI NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT with a gig of memory.

Also, will a 750W PSU run it with the specs below and possibly some more video cards?

Just for reference, here's the specs of my to-be rig:
Xion II Case (Black and Green)
Samsung DVD Burner
Lite-On Blu-Ray Drive
MSI 890FXA-GD70 Mobo
8GB OCZ Gold DDR3 (Will expand to 16GB eventually)
Whichever CPU I pick, probably overclocked
2TB SATA HDD
Windows 7 Home Premium
Which ever video card(s) I get
Liquid Cooling eventually

My Current Rig:
Dell Dimension 2350
1.8Ghz P4
1GB DDR
40GB HDD
250GB HDD
NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT 1GB

Any help?

All is good in my computer room once again. Got my SSD and OS today and did a clean install. All 4 cores are detected as well as all of my RAM. Speedfan is reading the core temp to be ~35c. Works pretty well, just need to re-install some things and I'm set.
