Building 2 new boxes with the ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 mobo.
Thermaltake V3 Black Edition Mid Tower Case
Crucial 4GB memory.
Debating the Corsair Hydro Series H50/70 for cooling.
I'm not a gamer, and not an OC'er yet, but looking to unlock the cores and boost performance using an older, less expensive AMD CPU for now.
Any suggestions on which Phenom II to use to give me unlocked cores and faster speed without trying to optimize settings individually like some of you experts!
Any thoughts on the Corsair Hydro cooling versus heat sink fans is much appreciated. Would the lesser chip require the Hydro cooling?
Thanks
Chuck
