Dang.. what if I get another cheap build? lol, I wonder if I'm really gonna upgrade three computers.. A P4, dual core wolfdale, and a i7! lol, my whole family can play on the computers now. ;D
I saw a Gigabyte UD3P at Fry's and the sales guy said it was a good mobo for OCing, and it can use crossfire. They also had a Asus P5Q deluxe for like $200, but the UD3P was only $135. And is that Gskil RAM I picked any good? Which Nvidia company is better: BFG, or EVGA?
