Hey guys.
I'm in the process of building my first gaming PC and I was almost certain about which motherboard to get, but now I'm even more confused after reading reviews and gathering more info. Since I'm essentially an amateur when it comes to PC parts, I was hoping you guys could give me your input and recommendations.
Here are the mobos I'm debating:
EVGA 141-BL-E757-TR: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188049&cm_re=EVGA_141-BL-E757-TR_LGA_1366_Intel_X58_ATX_X58_SLI-_-13-188-049-_-Product
EVGA Micro X58: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4846653&csid=ITD&body=MAIN#detailspecs
EVGA 121-BL-E756-TR: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188051
ASUS P6T SE: http://www.newegg.com/ProducT/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131386
EVGA E758-TR: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188046&cm_re=evga_x58-_-13-188-046-_-Product
ASUS Rampage II GENE: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131371&cm_re=RAMPAGE_II_GENE-_-13-131-371-_-Product
I know it's a lot guys, but I really need some help here. I want a good mobo for the price and would prefer to stay below 200 bucks if possible. I'm hoping this PC will last me for several years and will not have to upgrade any parts soon.
Other parts:
i7-930
6 gb DDR3 (G.Skill) - 1600
Asus CuCore Radeon 5770
22'' 1920 x 1080 AOC
If you guys have any other suggestions about these parts, feel free. I've heard that I should swap the 5770 for a 5850, but I'm on a budget. Plus, if worse comes to worse, I was thinking of buying another when it came time and use CrossFire, but I don't know if that's necessary. I'm hoping the 5770 will look nice enough to avoid this.
