Ok here is what I am starting with:
Case: Thermaltake Armor Full Tower Case
PSU: Silverstone ST75ZF
Cooling: Water Cooled Storm, BIXII, MCP655
Budget: $1000 for CPU, Mobo, Ram
These are my expectations: I am looking to get an over clock of 3.4 to 3.6 (or higher). I do not like to throw more than 1.5, 1.51, 1.52 volts into my CPU.
I would like to get some overclock out of my memory and get some decent timings, However I don’t like putting extreme voltage into my memory to get higher clocks. I am basically looking for a good stable over clock that I can set once and forget about it.
Also, I do not need a mobo with SLi , But I do want a Mobo that has Matrix Raid.
Here is what I am looking at getting for the CPU, Mobo, and Ram
CPU: I want to get either an E6600 or Xeon 3060. I am leaning more towards the Xeon 3060 due to lower VID. What do you guys think?
Mobo: Leaning towards the Asus P5B-Deluxe, but have also heard good things about the Abit AW9D and Asus P5W DH. What do you guys think?
Ram: I was basically looking for DDR2-800/ cas 4/ D9 memory. I want 2x1 Gb sticks. I was looking at these -> SUPER TALENT T800UX2GC4 or G.SKILL F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ What do you guys think?
Thanks for any help in advance, VinnyTAMU
