I need some help.

Basically i am pricing up a new system.

Originaly I was going to get a asus ROG crosshair IV. and Phenom II X6 1100T


But after looking around a bit, I might actualy be perswaded to go to the dark side and get an intel.

On problem is I have hit a cross roads.

First system I have looked at would consist of an Asus ROG Maximus IV Extream board, with a i7 2600K chip.


But then last night I found anouther system.

A Asus ROG rampage III extream OR black edition and a i7 930.

Now im not sure if the black edition is worth 100 extra over the extream. especially as all i can realy tell is the Killer network card and head phone boost. none of whitch would realy change my life.


And also i know the 930 is a lower Ghz but I have heard that they will easily clock to 4.0 anyway.


But what is the best.

I am a gamer and that pretty much all my pc does. it just games.

So all im after is a setup that will give me a nice fast PC. that will play games for a few years. untill the next big step in computer hardware hits.

How come, I run various Gigabyte boards and never had a problem, using the X58 UD5 now and this has never missed a beat.

the only gigabyte board that i havent had any trouble with is the one in my 6 years olds pc, that seems to run fine. but the same cpu and graphix card worked a lot better in my asus boared. from my old computer.

I know they dont realy go wrong that oftene but they do seem to lack the performance of other baords. or maybe i have just been unlucky with them. but nether the less. I love ROG boards and their features. so im going for them.

so the general consesis is the 2500-2600k then.

their is definatly no need for for the ammount of ram i can put on the rampage. so that could be waisted money going for a 930 and a 1366 boared.
