!!HELP!! New Buget System Build

Hi i am trying to scrape up some parts to build a new system. So far i have purchased a few parts and had some parts left over from my last build.

Current Parts:

CASE: Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case (I got a killer deal $65! )
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6811129021

PSU: Rosewill Green Series RG630-2 630W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6817182185

Hard Drive: Normal ATA 80gb Western Digital
To old to find the specs on newegg.

I already have Razer USB keyboard, Razer USB mouse, Speaker set, DVD Burner, and 26in ASUSLCD (res: 1920 x 1200)

Parts Needed:

A good quality Mobo that has Overclocking potential.. ive been looking at the ASUS P5Q Pro Turbo LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813131377

A fast intel Quad Core Processor (hopefully under $200)

A fast GPU hopefully a new nVidia 200 series card (under $200)

and some fast compatible memory that goes with the Mobo

I am trying to use Newegg to purchase all my parts because i am very pleased with their customer support.

If you guys have any suggestions or comments i would be happy to hear them

Thanks so much

Well either the i5 or the i7 seems to be a little bit out of my price range and i want to stick with the 775 socket type, but thanks for the suggestion.

The i5 is down in the Phenom IIx4 price range now. I dont know what AMD is going to be able to sell with the i5 giving better performance at that price point.

Look for a GTX260 or ATI 4870 or 4890 GPU to add to the i5 cpu/motherboard/RAM that why_me suggested and you will have a great gaming system.

Well im looking at around
$200 for the proc
$100-150 for the Mobo
$100-150 for the Vid Card

Hey you do have a good point. I read over all those links that u posted and like the idea, BUT i dont want to dish out $100+ on some fast DDR3 Memory yet.

I'm not sure why you're under the impression that DDR3 RAM is so expensive. The RAM Why_Me linked above is $80. DDR2 prices are on the rise since they will be phased out. DDR3 is the new standard and gives a better upgrade path. Core 2 and DDR2 had a good run, but technology has moved on.

Hmm.. yeah i guess so now i looked at some performance charts and i think now I'm set on buying the new i5... but im not sure on what mobo to purchase. I wanted to buy an ASUS board but i haven't fount a single one with the right socket type.

Thanks.. do you know of a good i5 compatible board that has good overclocking potential?

Nope i just like ASUS because i already have a few products by them and i haven't had a single problem yet.

Oh i like that combo!... and do you think that the i5 750 has decent overclocking potential?

Wow! that is pretty phenomenal to squeeze that much performance out of a $200 processor, but there was one question... in the first link that you posted the person claims that the overclocked it to 4.2 ghz easily, with stock cooling. I would think that the proc would overheat with stock cooling.

Do you think i should purchase aftermarket cooling?

Assuming the heat the i7 920s gives off when overclocking applies to the i5, I would definitely get an aftermarket cooler. Not many listed as 1156 compatible yet, but this coolermaster looks good.

Which is the hyper 212 in this review.

The Hyper 212 is on frosty's top 10 intel cooler list so it should about as good as you can get with air cooling.

You go ahead and stick with your stock cooler there "AMDThunder", for a few dollars more I like to keep my temps as low as possible ....and when did the OP say anything about a mild o/c ?

Why is there arguing over $30 to get a cooler that should safely let you jump from 2.66GHz to over 4GHz on an i5? Stock is safe if you are only going to overclock a PhenomII a few hundred Hz but why risk damage to your CPU and Motheboard and why not get that 50% increase for such a small price.

Well i might as well dish out $30 for a nice cooler that will be more quiet than a stock cooler.

The OC i am going to try and achieve is 4.8 Ghz... according to this link it is possible

(http://www.guru3d.com/article/core-i5-750-core-i7-860-870-processor-review-test/)

Oh alright i don't necessarily need a massive overclock. I just wanted the most bang for my buck

I think you mean 3.8

ahhhhh.... reading.....i was just reading what u wrote here:

i supplied in case u were too old and have Alzheimer's as well..... obviously ur previous message is not saying he should use a stock cooler....
u should also note that ur grade 1 comprehension is surpassed by my grade 12 levels.....
anyway, ill leave that for the general public to decide....

No, it doesn't. It said a mild to moderate OC is doable with a stock HSF. Nothing more, nothing less. Again, you fail. Maybe English isn't your first language? Judging by your typing skills, I'm going to guess not.

Australians don't speak English?

sorry Psycho Sykes..... hes kinda aggro...... but u should get a cooler if ur going to OC

@AMDThunder:
we can argue elsewhere.....and yes, Australian's don't speak English....we speak Australian....

You both have points.
And I didn't say I'm at "AMD Thunder"`s side neither at yours, I simply said that it's not a big deal to argue about something like that as each one of you has a separate opinion and it's whatever happened in the hand of "Thread Starter".

So I'm with "AMD Thunder" that he MAY NOT NEED a cooler for low-end OC'ing and if the environment is suitable he may not need it ever.
AND I'm with "micky_lund" That he'll need a cooler if he's going to OC to 3.8 as he said while "AMD Thunder" offered his opinion BEFORE he said the ratio he will be shooting to (The Thread starter).

So I don't mean to rude or anything but here you go...

Best Regards.
