build i was told to get but the mobo has some horrible reviews which conerns me should i get a different mobo im not conerned with 3.0 because i was told most graphics cards wont utilize all the lanes in 16 slot so having double would be pointless if they are not being utilized any suggestions would be awesome need to get info asap need to have this bought by tomorrow morning

Ah good okay got something to work with now, seems like you didnt like the Sept 2011 build so I'll start working on a custom one. Do you like blue LED or red?

 

[Emelth]

Also if you could do me a favor and list the parts you got already so that I can make sure they are compatiable with each other

 

[ghostmob]

i got a 800d case just bought leds dont really matter to me but wouldnt bother me also

 

[Emelth]

Alright what about your RAM i need the details on it as well hoepfully it is 1.5v

 

[ghostmob]

i most likely will get new ram i have all the info on the link i posted sorry i had a post but it got bumped so far down and i think i slected best answer so no one was posting anymore

 

[Emelth]

Alright here is what I think would work great for you, your links are broken so I couldnt tell what parts you were talking about on newegg. Besides that I hope you like and you have one hell of a case too bad it does have LEDs on it else I would think about getting it

Any other questions or issues?

 

[ghostmob]

dam ya i thought you could see the posts i have 800d case and psu looking for motherboard/cpu/gfx mainly the best of the best in the categories performance best i mean price reasonable for the performance have a 1500 max trying for 1000 though

 

[ghostmob]

if you could show me another build i would love you i have seen a few and im still hesitant on the motherboard and gfx card i want the best one in the 580 category

 

[Emelth]

Whats your monitor Res this link below may help you see more clearly

[Emelth]

The parts are choosed are the bst of the best for price/performance I pretty sure everyone would agree if more commenters would come around lol

 

[ghostmob]

1920x1080

 

[ghostmob]

but i would have to figure out what i would need im not really knowledgable on the compatibility of stuff or i would gladly figure this out myself im slowly learning but still have alot ot learn

 

[ghostmob]

shoot forgot to tell you i have hard drive /dvd drive i was wondering why you posted that also forgot it on my last post

 

[Emelth]

I would still stick with the 6970 and crossfire when you need the extra performance plus it is OC'ed already with great cooling capabilities. If I had to build another computer the only thing I would change is an upgrade to the mobo

ASRock Z68 PROFESSIONAL GEN3 - $259.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157263

More USB 3.0 slots! Will last maybe a half a year longer

 

[ghostmob]

so what about the set up i posted you think the mobo you posted is better for the upgrade ? Sorry like I said I have had multiple builds shown but that looked like the best one but the mobo seems to have more complaints then praise

 

[Emelth]

The link you posted for MoBo is broken so I cant really tell which is better

sorry hope that works

 

[ghostmob]

all the links are definately working that is the build i was shown but the mobo is questionable and i dont know if the 580 is the best out of all the ones that are for sale on newegg cuz i want the best one if im gonna spend that kind of money

 

[Emelth]

The mobo you chose has more USB slots besides that I see no real difference when it comes to gaming

 

[ghostmob]

the difference i see is the number of complaints 2nd what ram do you think i should get with the build you see posted

 

[Emelth]

the RAM I posted in my build will also work they are both 240 pin compatiable
