I have bought so far:
CPU: AMD Phenom II 955 BE
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103674
Ram: OCZ Platinum 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail OCZ3P16004GK

HSF: XIGMATEK Dark Knight-S1283V 120mm Long Life Bearing CPU Cooler - Retail
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233029

I will be using a single GPU such as Geforce 260 core 216 minimum.
I also will possibly want a mild OC on the cpu, about 3.6 ish.
I also dont need onboard video.
With that said, which mobo out of these should i get:
GA-MA790XT-UD4P= cheapest, (1) pcie16, 790x chipset- will that hurt OC?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128378
GA-MA790FXT-UD5P= about $40 more (2) PCIe16, 790FX- better performance?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128377
MSI 790FX-GD70= same price as one above, lots PCIe16, 790 FX
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130223
Also I was a little worried about the ram speed, from what ive read it may not run at 1600 speed but it wont be a big deal right?
Still need to get the case which will probably be Antec 902.
Still need video card problably geforce 216 or better.
thanks for your time.
