Right, thanks for the help on the mobo selection Yamikotai and Slaymate on my previous thread.
Hee is what I have for my build so far, what do you think?
MOBO:
EVGA X58
132-BL-E758-A1 - EVGA X58 3X SLI, iX58, Sok 1366, PCI-E 2.0 (x16), Triple DDR3 1066/ 1333, SATA II, SATA RAID, ATX - Scan.co.uk
CPU:
Intel i7 920
BX80601920 - Intel i7 920, D0 SLBEJ S1366, Nehalem, 2.66 GHz, QPI 4.8GT/s, 8MB Cache, 20x Ratio, 130W, Retail - Scan.co.uk
Memory:
ok, so I'm stuck here as to which one to choose, there is the dominator 1600Mhz with a 7-7-7-20 latency
TR3X6G1600C7D - 6GB (3x2GB) Corsair Dominator DDR3, PC3-12800 (1600), 240 Pin, Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 7-7-7-20 - Scan.co.uk
or the Dominator 1866Mhz with a 9-9-9-24 latency at only £20 more and comes with a fan too.
TR3X6G1866C9DF - 6GB (3x2GB) Corsair Dominator, Triple DDR3 PC3- (1866), 240 Pin, Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 9, DHX, XMP - Scan.co.uk
or are there better ones to choose from (in terms of performance) around the same price.
GPU:
Stuck here again, don;t know if I should get a GTX-295 single card or cheaper models in Sli...what is the best choice? oh and which company should I choose from?
Soundcard:
X-Fi titanium
70SB088600000 - Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional - Scan.co.uk
Power Supply:
Corsair HX 850W - have a corsair HX 620W and its doign good for me but I'm not sure if this is the right one to have for my PC or not and wether 850W is too much.
CMPSU-850HXUK - 850W Corsair 850HX PSU, ATX, EPS12V, Modular, UK Version - Scan.co.uk
Hard Drive:
solid state hard drive good for a primary drive or should I not bother?
Oh and whats a really really good CPU cooler nowadays? I currently have the tuniq tower for mine but I want something different and not so big, this one is being supported inside my case or it would probably break my mobo if i carried it around. OR SHOULD I GO WATER COOLING? what do you say?
Still looking around for my case atm, not sure what size I want yet, but what can you suggest? got an antec 900 right now and thats been pretty good.
Thanks,
Aidin
