Hi new here 
Well its come time to build a new pc as my son will inherit my old system as hes now at the point where he moans about things like fps drop and onboard graphics and things so he will take my system and il get a new one
Purchased the processor already
i5 2500k
skt 1155
after a good motherboard to go with it
currently have a
q6600 @ 3.2ghz
asus rampage formula x48 mobo
8gb xms 2 ddr2
gtx 275
have done some digging but its a mine field and to be honest its a hard decision
have previously had a p5ne-sli mobo which i hated couldnt ever seem to get it to overclock on the q6600 changed boards and hit 3.2 with no probs
so im after a good mobo
will be adding a new gfx card also but have in mund either 2 x gtx 560 or 2 x hd6870 il ask that in the correct part of the forum want 1920 x 1080 and to hold solid 333 fps if possible for my old game and to also play bf3 pretty nice (can currently but think it can be better than i have)
have a agility III ssd to use and will get a new case quite like the CM cosmos case any way really strugling to decide
p65 h61 z68 or is x79 gonna win and be out soon? hair pulling time and i dont have much left
any way thanks for your time and help
