Core i7 2600

[roberto0117]

Hello Guys !

I would like to ask you about Power Supplies.

I bought a Core i7 - 2600 (without k) Processor.

1- Which is better for the processor -> the ASUS H61m or MSI H61 ?
Do you think would it better with a Intel Moderboard ? I'm think less or equal than $120.

The second aspect I would like to ask you, it is about the PS.

2- I would like to add a Raedon HD5770 or HD6770, I'm think in a card (maximum $130), but I don't which one would be the best for the moderboard und the processor. Is it possible that with that money the best choice will be not to choose a video card ?

3- Finally, with the configuration that I said before, what do you recommend for me with the PS ?

Thanks !

i tend to stick with asus, thats just me, i say read reviews, do some research. i would say it also depends on what you need it for..gaming, rendering, video stuff..casual use..

and you need to have a video card, you dont NEED to but again, this depends on your needs. i say choose a video card, so that your not bogging down your CPU..

i would say a decent 550-650 would be fine, again, dependent on what you need the pc to do

Get a p67 or z68 board.

Get a p67 or z68 board.

But is it really necessary ?

I'm not going to play games.

yes, this motherboard will give you better performance than both of the boards you have suggested. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157271

check out the Asus p8z68, P8z67.. good boards as well..

you need to do a little research, youtube, google, newegg.. takes a little time to perfect your build.
