So this is my second time attempting to build my PC. I was using a 680i EVGA A1 board, and it is Dead, again. This is the deal. First one I got wouldn't POST, so I was like, "Ok, this happens, no big deal." Second time, after I recieved the replacement, I got it, It POSTED! I was so relieved. This was bare boarding it mind you, so then I installed the rest of the components and popped it in the case. Didn't POST. F7 for the loss right? I checked the ram, boards, HD's, but to no avail.
I am now seriously considering forgetting going in SLI, and going with a P35 Asus board. I wanted to run SLI as a gamer, and had two GTS 640mb in SLI. Although now, since I am seeing benchmarks that show 1 GTX or Ultra can out do a GTS SLI setup, I am thinking Crysis might be just as good from a P35.
I really need some advice here, as I have smoked my first cigarette in months because I am stressed. Would this be a good path to go as a gamer? Or should I try to stick it out and just try again?
Input is GREATLY appreciated.
thanks in advance
