Ok, im looking for some input here.
Looking to put together a cheap quad core system that overclocks well. I have been watching prices, and noticed this combo deal on Newegg:
GIGABYTE GA-MA770-UD3 AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard
Phenom II X4 920
$222.98-$10MIR=$212.98
I just wondered if you all thought this was a pretty good way to go for what I need. I do not need SLi or crossfire.
One thing i am confused on is the specs say it will use DDR2 1066, but then some reviewers are saying they use DDR3?
Will be used for gaming
Budget ~$300
All other parts needed (PSU etc.) I already have, except RAM which, depending on replies, I will pick up.
Any input is appreciated
