I am going to buy Phenom II X4 955 BE & Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H (AM2+) mobo along with other stuff tomorrow. I noticed that some of the resellers are still selling C2 stepping 955BE. The new one are C3 stepping. Shouldn't C2 stepping ones cost less? C3 stepping is essential for gaming I heard, right?
Also, the Gigabyte mobo has different Revision version like Rev. 3.3, 1.3, 1.1 & 1.0. Is it just mere Bios update or component update too? Does it matter if I don't get 3.3 & have to opt for an 1.3?
The rest of the components are there in my signature.
