Hello to all,
I have a gaming pc as follows: mobo EVGA X58 SLI 132-BL-E758-A1 i7 950 @ 3066/4066Mhz, 12GB RAM Corsair TR6X3G1600C8D 8-8-8-24, 2x nVidia GTX480 1.5GB SLI and Digital Velociraptor 150GB RAID0 2xWestern that just gave me satisfaction, I have to say
Unfortunately, the mobo is just dead and no longer under warranty so I ask you whether you should buy another mobo with X58 chipset and use the 950 for another few years or keep some component (which?) And switch to a newer platform intel (X79? Z87?)
Of course also advise me a new processor and / or a change of some component
Thanks in advance,
Lupino.86
P.S.
Since a while I blend in my head the idea of buying an EVGA Classified SR-2 270-WS-W555-A2 and buy the other two so as to have a monstrous GTX480 quad-SLI but do not know the cost of the Xeon 55xx-series 56xx and especially if the game is worth the candle .... What do you think?
