Hi,
I'm about to buy a new PC, and I have been looking around a lot, so I came to the decision to have a PC buit for me.
I will be using the PC primarily for music home recording.
I want an intel core 2 quad processor, but I need some advice on what motherboard I should get.
Or should I even consider an i7 processor? They are probably still too expensive, so in order to get an i7 I should probably wait another 6 months or so, and I need the new PC eariler!
On one of their offers the store I went to had a MSI P6NGM-L motherboard, which seemd a bit too cheap to me considering it's a pretty powerful PC with a quad processor.
I have been thinkgin of Asus P5Q-E or Asus P5Q PRO, but I'm undecided.
I know I want firewire on it and the possibility of wireless internet.
Can anyone give me some recommendations for a good motherboard that still leaves options for upgrading?
Do I need to look for available PCI slots?
Thanks,
Lars
