Hey guys, it's been seven years since my last new machine build, and I just had a look at the Asus website and so much has changed..
This is my current MB: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8Z68V_PROGEN3/
I have no idea where to start for a new build. I don't do much gaming, but I do need lots of RAM as I am a crazy internet browser freak, having 100s of opened tabs at a time, even with the 16gb I had with the old MB it was still bogging down. But I see some new MBs have 64GB chips x 4. woo hoo! Things have come a long ways! Although I may want more as I had no idea it had already been seven years!!!
I need some advice for a new build.
I have a bunch of things that need USB. My current box has 4 front end USB ports which is really needed. And of course I need a bunch on the back too.
Basically I need something similar to the Asus P8Z68-V Pro/Gen3 but of course with loads of new stuff! My current build is below in my signature, and I would need to upgrade everything, I will start from 0 and build a new machine completely.
Some recommendations for everything would be highly appreciated at least it gives me a place to start. Including how big of a power supply I am going to need for the new build? Thanks in advance!!!!
