Alright I have opened another thread for this, but it would be a continuation of this one... I decided to put this in a different thread because its not about only the motherboard anymore, its about the whole pc...
Ok guys, after a lot of research I made a decision... The ASUS P8P67-M Pro suits all my needs. Even though it has a mATX form factor, it supports Crossfire at 8x 8x, so in the future I will be able to put another 6950 with no problem ( there is enough space between the pci-e slots and the temperature wont be a big problem because I can add another fan, I looked for that too).
Overclocking shouldn't be a problem too, because I don't plan to oc my processor too much.
So the pc would be like this:
CPU: Intel Core I5-2500k
GPU: AMD Radeon Hd 6950 2gb
PSU: any 650w one (will upgrade to 750w when ill get another card)
RAM: (X2) 4gb Kingston Ddr3
MOBO: Asus P8p67-m Pro
HDD: Western Digital 500 Gb Cache 32mb Black Edition
So, what do you think? Am i right about the motherboard? should i change any of the components? Should I buy a 750W PSU directly? what psu would you recommend?
Another question: What cheap case would you recommend for that setup?
