Hi, this is my config for a computer that I am going to use for gaming (not the latest titles), photo editing and 3d at a hobby level. My budget is under £800. I have a mouse and screen. Just wondering apart from SLI what the differences are between the mobo i selected and the PRO version. Also will 450W psu be enough because I was considering getting a 600W version but apparently this does not support sli.
