Hi folks!
Im planning to build a new rig soon. Im in the dilemma: to wait or not to wait for X58 and Nehalem? I read intel is planning to release only the high performance processors first (around october) then move to the mainstream processors(Q1-Q2 2009). Im currently without a system,cause i sold the old one completly. Im expecting that with the release of the X58 prices will drop. I wont buy the X58 immediately, but planning to buy one of the better X48 mobos.
Im thinking of buying:
ASUS Rampage Formula
Q9550
ASUS Silent Knight II
2x2GB Corsair Dominator
Shappire Radeon 4870
Thermaltake Armor 6000 series
Corsair 750W PSU
Shall i buy it now? Or buy one of the "cheaper" nehalem config?
Also what does Quad CrossfireX means? I can use 4 radeons each with 1 GPU or 2 radeons with 2x2 GPUs?
