'lo all,
Getting a new system (see below) but I am unsure if I have picked the right motherboard - currently selected the Asus P5N32-E SLi nForce 680 (Socket 775).
Want one that has Firewire, 8+ USBs, good quality 7.1 onboard sound, 1333 FSb and at least 3 PCI Express (Graphics card, TV Card + 1 spare for future use). Out of the boards that can support all this, which one also is best for other features (i.e. friendly support for over-clocking/additional system info/+ great consumer reviews).
Also should I buy my own fan to cool the CPU?
Any advice will be carefully considered and looked into, cheers!
