Hello,
I am getting closer to my 1st build (cmon March!...hurry up already! ) and I am just tweaking my setup:
Antec 300 Illusion: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129066
Intel I5 750 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115215
Corsair 4gig Mem: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145260
BFG GTX 260 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814143198
BFG 550W PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817702010
500gb drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148395
dvd burner http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827106289
I am looking at two EVGA mobos and i cannot decide which one to pursue.
The EVGA P55 LE 123-LF-E653 seems like a basic board that will serve me well but im a little concerned about its limited expandabilty. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188054
The EVGA P55 SLI 132-LF-E655 has alot more going for it but i dont know if its worth the extra dough. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188055
I am still new to this and I am unable to assess the pros and cons of these boards minus the obiovious (SLI, number of slots, ect). Are there any glaring differences that would greatly affect my enjoyment of my gamins system? Bottleneck issues?
Thanks in advance for your input!
