Hi Guys,
Questions
This would be a phase wise build, and i would like your advice on the choices that i have narrowed down to. My last 2 systems were AMD, and hence my choice has been to that, however i am open to intel as well.
I may overclock to 4 Ghz (only to be able to play some games that require that), other than that, my only requirements are to have a system which is reliable and long lasting. I would be upgrading the GPU (maybe SLI/Crossfire) later so would like a MB which has that option. Would also like the MB to have a header for a front USB 3.0 port that i have in my case.
Thanks in advance.
