okay, I currently am building a new PC. Or atleast dreaming about building it. (will be built within 4 months.)

I am working with
CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113291
HeatSink: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103100

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811124155


HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822178391


PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139010




So, I'm left wondering what motherboard I should get?

REQ: Intergrated wifi card, 4 USB hub(on io pannel), Supports SLI (two gtx 660's), Obviously everything posted above, And up to 16GB RAM (Four 4-GB sticks).



Also, any tips n tricks would be VERY appriciative! I plan on playing with this until I feel like selling it for a profit. (mabey even selling my old Gaming pc.)

Thanks a TON!

It's a low end, last gen chip, based on a poorly designed architecture, and is quite simply slow.

Still a waste of money. More money does not necessarily mean better, either.

Why? It costs more and is barely different.


I can't find anything on 660SLI being faster, and the Titan is barely faster than the 780. Source?

Don't get the Bulldozer chip. It's outdated and slow. I'd suggest an FX-6300.

Save on the PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Common/AdvancedLinkLanding.aspx?nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=&URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.newegg.com%2FProduct%2FProduct.aspx%3FItem%3DN82E16817182133

Cheaper HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822149407&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

One faster card is generally a better idea than SLI. I'd recommend a single 7970 (or a 770 if you want to SLI that in future).

I don't understand how it's slow.

Meh, more expensive it is the better quality.

Nope, I like this one.

Pretty firm on what I have, I want the 660x2 Because it's better than a titan @ half the price!
