I am planning to get a 4870x2 when it comes out but for now I think I will stick with the 4870. I plan on overclocking and will use an e8400. The thing is I don't know which motherboard to get and what RAM to get. I heard getting ddr 800 pc2 6400 is good enough and anything more is a waste. This ram looked pretty good...any comments? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227267 And I don't really understand the differences between all the motherboards.
Like with the x38 or an x48....whats the difference between those 2 mobos? I know both are highly suggestive if your going crossfire because you need it to fully use the speed of crossfire but what other capabilities does it have over the non x boards? What does the x48 have over the x38?
And I want the best bang for my buck on both of these.
I'm not sure if it matters but I will be using a 24", 5 hardrives, and a pci-e raid controller card. Will a corsair 750W be enough?
