Hi, I'm lost with MBs and need some help. I generally know what I want but need some suggestions or guidence.
I'm building a new machine and I'm going with the Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdave 3.16Ghz LGA 775. I want to overclock it to be over 4.0. I'm looking to get SLI and probably going to get a Geforce 8800 GTX and another one down the road.
I don't know if I should go with DD2 or DD3. I've seen some boards with those. I was going to go with the 780i SLI for the north bridge because the prices are a little lower than the 790i. Is it worth it to go 790i at this point?
I'm just hung up on MB's at the moment and I don't want to make a mistake.
Thank you in advance for your time and experience.
