I'm planning on upgrading my current rig (specs in sig). Since the Phenom's are not as good as the Core 2's im switching to the 'dark side'. I'm a gamer and i love to OC. I will be getting a Q6600 and 4GB (2*2GB) ram not sure on the brand just yet. These are the boards i've been looking at:
eVGA nForce 780i SLI
DFI LANParty LT X38-T2R
ASUS Maximus Formula
I've read some posts here on the 780i and some on the X38. I dont "need" SLI but it doesnt hurt to have it. I want a solid board that i can hopefully push a Q6600 to 3GHz or beyond with the board not being the limitation to the results. Both my hdd's are sata and i might pick up a sata dvd-rw. What chipsets and MB's would you guys suggest?
Thanks
