I want to upgrade my computer very soon, probably within 2 weeks. I have alot of questions
some background info:
I want to get a q9450, a motherboard that supports it and is stable, I don't have the money for 3-way sli, I have a 8800GT
questions
Is it worth the money to invest in 1200mhz ram not overclocked?
some motherboards say (1066,800,667) supports 1200 (oc). Does that mean that it does not support 1200 not oc?
What memory should I get 1200, 1066, 800. would it be better to get 800 then oc to 1200 rather than wasting on a 1200?
Asus motherboards are $200+ for 45nm, and Gigabyte motherboards are $100+. Why is it so much cheaper, is it that asus is much better in architecture, would it be better to get a gigabyte?
I have a 8800gt should I go 2-way sli, will it make that much of a difference, if im not going 2-way sli then I don't need a sli motherboard or sli ram?
A 1000W powersupply is $40 more than a 850W, is it worth it, is there any point to the extra 150W
can anyone recomend me any products
I will thank everyone who helps me out with my new build
check this post I will update it with other questions if you would like to help
