I am a gamer and am planning on ordering the parts for my next rig. I have a question about what motherboard I should go with. Current things that are factories in my decision on what board to get are,
• ddr2 1066 ram (I don’t see enough of a performance increase to go to ddr3 yet)
• gtx280 vid card(only one)
• 1 to 2 hard drives
• Air cooling
• Q9550 cpu (might overclock a bit but not much…maybe up to 3.2)
Question:
what’s the best chipset to get? P45, x48 or n780?
What’s are some suggestions for boards that are for my situation.
Is asus still play god of all motherboards?
Boards that have caught my eye:
Asus Rampage Formula
Asus Maximius Formula 2
Evga 780i FTW
Evga 780i normal
Asus PQ5's boards
any suggestions would really help ...thanks
