Hi all.
Built a computer for my son,
Specs are as follows..
3 TB Hard Drive.
2 TB Slave Hard Drive.
Pioneer BDR-209 Blu Ray Writer.
Asus DRW-24F1 DVD Writer.
750 Watt PSU.
Geforce 630 - 4GB Graphics Card.
6 X Xilence 120mm Case Fans.
Xilence M606 CPU Cooler. (Have Question About This)
AMD FX8350 - 8 Core CPU.
Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 Motherboard.
The motherboard seems a nightmare, the display flickers even using the onboard display.
The USB ports work sometimes and not others.
So can anyone recommend a good motherboard? i've been told that 1 of these 2 will be good: 1 1 - ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0
2 - Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
Don't really want to spend more than £130 on it. But want something good quality and lasting.
Any suggestions ? from the top 2? or a better recommendation?
Any help would be appreciated,
Lisa.
PS.. CPU Cooler, brought a secondary fan for it as it can have one on each side, but we want it to run the same speed as the fan on it already, brought an Akasa AK-CB002 PWM Splitter Smart Fan Cable which is what i was told would solve it.
But the CPU wire has 4 pins, my CPU fan only has 3 pins. is it ok to plug it into a 3 pin fan? will my motherboard still control it and the secondary fan so they still run at the same speed ? the 2 case fan wires only have 3 pins though could i plug them onto that instead?
