Month end is here, and its salary time, finally will go buy the stuff if I can convince it sounds right.
I was planning to get the e7400(6.2k techshop.in). Which is a good cheap motherboard to go with this that will OC it well? considering I'm a first time OCer, ease of use would also matter(gui et all). Intension is to OC as high as I can staying stable. 3.6ghz atleast?
Don't say G31M-S2L. That was what I had in mind, but it seems too low end. I don't wanna limit myself. I'm going to be running 4gbs of (hopefully) g.skill piblacks, which also probably OCed(if I can manage it) and a 4850+ card.
Other board I considered was the biostar tpi45, but thats for 7.5k right? Might as well spend another grand get the EP45-UD3P. But then that's not too cheap is it?
Is there a 4-5k board, that OCs C2Ds, ram really well(asus, msi) that I don't know about. I will be getting true or sccf as soon as its available.
Another question:
Would a VX450 pull 6 * 120mm(one cpu) fans, 4870 1gb, sound card, 3 HDDs, 1 DVDrom and a fan controller for those fans.
Might add one more gpu later some time. Is it worth investing more on the psu now to be crossfire/sli ready or should I sell this off when I go multi-gpu and get something new at that time?
Another thing is, the very low end mobos have low end onboard audio. I do a decent bit of recording, mic or guitar through line in. I'd like something that would do a decent job till I can afford to get an m-audio.
