Hey,

I have bought everything i need except the mobo as the one i wanted i was told had no usb3 port for front mounted usb3's. Asroc extreme 3 gen 3 fyi.

My bits so far:
i52500k
MSI twin frzr 6950 2gb
8gb 1600 corsiar veng
h100
Corsair 500r
850w ps
1tb hd
Samsung bluray drive

My possible future needs:
SSD for OS and games
2nd 6950 (8x8 if possible)
Front usb 3 port NEEDED

I need your help guys, also do i need pcie3 or not at this stage?
 
Stulid: Have you noticed Asrock prices haven risen lately on certain boards, was just about to order another Asrock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 & price is now £179.98p :eek:

Paid around £150 or less a month ago, i knew I should have bought another one.:mad:

It is madness indeed, I dont know whether they are some how affected like hdd prices are with the flooding.

quick question I've been looking at the gigabyte but I'm unsure whether it is gen3 or not and whether it will support ivy bridge,
sorry if it's a stupid question

A bios update has given ivybridge support.
