Hey dudes. I'm purchasing components in a few weeks but unsure about which motherboard to order. I guess in a similar way of being unsure about which GPU manufacturer to go with! This is what I want from it/what I will be doing with it:
- long lasting with extensive use
- may overclock cpu/gpu in the future (in 1 year or more)
- single gpu, no plan to get another
- option of upto 16gb of ram
- I'm not anal about the quality of on board sound or ability to customise certain things like fan speeds
- not sure if theres any 'hidden' features I would want or need... like what I've searched: Turbo boost technology 2.0
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/36Su0 Is a link to the approximate components I want to get. I know the PSU is bad, it is just a price place holder.
Overall just looking to build a strong PC that will last a _long_ time with games that are out now. I am not a hardcore user so I wouldn't be over clocking like a madman or buying 5 case fans etc as there shouldn't be any need. My budget is around £100. If anyone knows a ton and would be able to recommend some boards it would be great Right now I have the MSI G45 Gaming on the page (but it doesn't come with Turbo Boost 2.0, but is it even worth getting?).
For further reference, the games I will mainly be playing up right are Skyrim (modded), CSGO, Metro, BF4.
Thanks a bunch!
