Hey folks,
So I'm looking to up from my i7 950 to a 6800k possibly. In looking I know I want a decent board to handle that, a GTX 980 that replaced an RMA's 780ti (looking to get an extra for SLi TOPS), and upgrading from the 840 EVO to a M.2. I do a mix of gaming, Video Edits, Photoshop (Which I've done the Mercury engine driver patch...no problems there).
I'm curious now a board and RAM ideas to start. I'm not an enthusiast overclocker as long-run stability and multi-year use are for sure my endgame. I'll likely just push what that chip will need before a voltage bump and leave it there. Likely air-cooled as its still a quieter solution (I like sound). So all-in-all I'm looking for a board and ram to match my need of supporting the 6800K with a little push room, and a price thats not bank-breaking as well. (I know something like quad-SLi, overclocking stability to high-earth, and RAM speed MAX-SPEED-FORCE 9000+ is just not something whatsoever I care for).
