Thanks for replying. I'm using the Corsair H50 Liquid Cooling for the CPU. I can get the CPU up to 4.1ghz stable, but the ram is only running at 1333. Do you think it would help to upgrade to Kingston-2000's?
I would just like to get some opinions on what's the best memory for oveclocking. I am looking for 12 gb of ram.
I currently have 12 gb of Kingston-1600. But, it's getting too hot when I overclock and I can't get full speed out of it.
Thanks in advance guys!
I currently have:
Intel Q9450
8GB 1333 RAM
2x GeForce GTX 280
300GB VelociRaptor Drive
1TB Data Drive
1000w PSU Unit
PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series
Full Tower CoolerMaster Case
(I don't remember what kind of MB ATM :P)
For my new rig, I would want an Intel CPU...
I was leaning towards buying an Asus Striker II Extreme, but I hear they have alot of problems. I need a motherboard which will handle 2x GeForce GTX280's.
Thanks
Thanks for your input guys.... Could you try giving me specs for a good $4000 system? A break down of parts like I gave perhaps?
BTW, I have a 24" Dell Monitor and my speakers are good too so leave those out.
My new computer will be used for gaming mainly and I'm willing to spend up to $6000 Canadian.
