Im just about finished with my new pc )) but Im getting caught up deciding between the 920 and the 940.
I've seen lots of people across the web saying that the 920 is all you need b/c you can oc it just as well as the 940...but I dont plan to get mine up to 3.8 or 4.0 or anything of that caliber. I want to overclock to about 3.2 and let it set without me ever having to worry about anything overheating or getting noisy (I would have no idea what to do).
I also cant decide between the Coolermaster v8 and an Asetek LC kit. Which would keep the temp and noise as low as possible?
Here is the rest of my build for reference:
Case ( CoolerMaster HAF 932 Full-Tower
Power Supply ( 950 Watt -- Tuniq Miniplant Power Supply Quad SLI Ready )
Processor ( [New !!] Intel® Core™ i7 940 Processor (4x 2.93GHz/8MB L3 Cache) )
Processor Cooling ( Coolermaster V8 Hybrid / Asetek
Motherboard ( Asus P6T Deluxe Intel X58 Chipset
Memory ( 6 GB [2 GB X3] DDR3-1600 Triple Memory Module Corsair or Major Brand )
Video Card ( 2x eVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 2GB ) OR (2x GTX 925)
Video Card Brand
Tuniq TX-2 High Performance Thermal Compound
Thanks!
