I currently have an old Core 2 Quad (Q6700 2.66ghz) CPU running off a Dell optiplex 745 system, with a basic set of upgrades (500 watt PSU, max RAM, Geforce GT 630 video card, Soundblaster Z series card, 1 TB hard drive) . I will be in the process of upgrading soon. And I want to start with a motherboard/CPU/RAM set first. I will not have a lot of money to spend at one time. I would like to start with the minmum (lowest cost) cpu (with higher priced options to consider) socket set that will take the the high end i9 series CPU's eventually. I like a lot of options when it comes to slots because of the video (SLI?) and sound cards. A good wireless rating would be awesome.
So what would you pros recommend? If possible please include all three MB/CPU/RAM. This computer will be used for everything from video games to audio editing to office doc manipulation, maybe even some video editing in the future.
Thank you.
Bruce
