Druid Fully Optimized Messages 3,065 Dec 31, 2008 #12 Do you need to have a board like that to run a corei7? The reason I'm asking is because when i build a computer I want a core i7, and if I have to get a board with only ddr3 that won't be very nice

philbar71 Fully Optimized Messages 4,533 Location Suffolk, VA Dec 31, 2008 #13 yes core i7 requires ddr3 because the mem controller is on the cpu as opposed to being on the mobo for s775

Druid Fully Optimized Messages 3,065 Dec 31, 2008 #14 going to be expensive then What about the quad 2 cores? I might back off to a Q9550 then.
philbar71 Fully Optimized Messages 4,533 Location Suffolk, VA Dec 31, 2008 #15 any thing s775 the mem controller is on the mobo as opposed to core i7
Druid Fully Optimized Messages 3,065 Dec 31, 2008 #16 so core i7 builds are the only ones that need ddr3?
M Michowski In Runtime Messages 187 Dec 31, 2008 #17 Thats correct. Intel i7 requires ddr3, Intel 775 goes either way.
