Hi, usually I tend to research & discover these things on my own but am not able to this time around and am in need of a platform update.
What I DO know: I will be going with an 1155 mobo.
What I DON'T know: Which chipset will be optimal for a non-overclocked, SLi rig supporting full 16x/16x, is future proof, and will tend to the needs of a minimalist performance user and gamer??
Background: I have been using an LGA775 rig since 2006 with a dual core processor which has worked flawlessly for my me but is now beginning to show its age.
*Also, if someone can clarify what the chipset initials stand for I'd GREATLY appreciate it (H, P, Z, Q, etc..) Thank you for your time, patience, and knowledge in advanced!
