Check out my build guide. Oh just to tell you, the i7's will be dead in about per say 1 month. Plus Ivy Bridge (Z68) will replace in 2 months. Here is a comparison of the 2500K (230$) i7 960 (280-290$).

Alright your choice. I don't understand though since you save about 100$-200$.

from my other threads today--


This is how i look at it first of the recall sucked but that didn't stop me from wanting a good replacement it was asus calling me telling me that there will not be replacements till April or so that was ok then they told me not to talk to new egg new egg called saying they could ship out my product from new egg around 1 week from now so i would have a replacement, then asus called and said they will not warranty my new mobo unless i get it thought there rma program, new egg told me this was wrong and now because of a issue like this they are not going to help me so i said screw this sent the board and cpu back to newegg for a credit refund and i need to buy new stuff i refuse to go 1155 because of this call this reason stupid or not i am going to buy slower 1366 technology at least this stuff is proven solid i am so sick of having to reinstall windows and take all of this stuff apart so much the silver-stone raven rv01 case is a nightmare to do this in I'm sick of it i want something that works and for me the 2500k was overkill i play games once in awhile and i have a gtx 580 and i could care less about wasting my time overclocking there is my reason i am not going to go over this with you again.


Please give me some insight on this build, could care less about sb i didnt find it that fast and i oc'd it to 5ghz.

That's not all companies, mainly just Asus. Gigabyte support is pretty good, MSI is pretty solid as well. Considering they have such little reviews.
