is it a good idea?
my budget is around 1500 tops and i have spent around 635, but the less money spent, the better!!
maybe i could find a combo deal
so i have around $500 to work with but remember, less is best
so would getting a evga classified be worth it, with some kind of low end memory? only problem is, i dont have another 8pin for it, which i believe would lower its greatness, correct?
i really have no idea what board i should get.
for mobo, i want to overclock the crap out of this on air, and i probably eventually use sli, if not 3 way, probably a sound card, and an ssd or 2
and for ram, i would like 6 gb. also, am i ever going to notice the difference between cheap ram and ram that is 3 times the price in real world stuff? not like in benches or anything.
