Hello all,
I'm shopping for components for a new system I'm building in the next month or two.
I intend to buy a new Gigabyte motherboard, but I'm not sure which technology is the most current, as well as the best to fill my needs.
My system will be used primarily for image editing. I intend to use an AMD processor, primarily because of cost.
Pretty much, I want to buy the best mobo/cpu combo I can afford.
I'm not familiar with the current lineup of chipsets that Gigabyte uses. There is a killer deal, this weekend only, on a Gigabyte, top of the line mobo that I have been looking at for a long time on NewEgg. The chipset it uses is, or seems to be, several years old (3 or 4 maybe)
Anyway, I'm curious to know if anyone has experience they might want to share, and possible compare the older chip sets against the newer, more current models.
If this question has been dealt with elsewhere here in the forum, or on the website already, I apologize.
A link to those related articles would be greatly appreciated...
Thank you.

P.S. all the holy grails apply....silent, fast, stable, cool running...with an emphasis on silent...
I'm not asking too much, am I??
