[Solved] Any updated thoughts? i7 2600k mobo

Forum Motherboards & Memory : Motherboards [Solved] Any updated thoughts? i7 2600k mobo

Alright,

I have been looking and looking for a motherboard and I seemed to have gotten tangled up in a little web. I was going to go with the i7 3930k cpu, but considering it will be used mainly for gaming with some photoshop, I decided the 2600k would be sufficient for my needs.

My issue is deciding on what motherboard to go with. I plan on going with a sli configuration of two http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130655. I also plan on OC the 2600k a little so I would need a motherboard that would be safe for that (and easy). Point being I am not going to tell you my current choices on motherboards because I would like fresh advice without any webs in the way.

Final thoughts (for a sli configuration of those graphics cards what is a good stable psu? Currently going with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6817194092, But I think it might be slight overkill. If I am able to downgrade it a little I would love to do that.

Anyways I will be monitoring this thread, but I would like to thank anyone who responds in advance. (I would have been long lost without this site ^^ )
