Hi all,
I'm starting to look into upgrading to a new motherboard, cpu and ram in the next few months so am looking for some suggestions.
I'm currently running an i7-950 with 3x2gb sticks of 1866 corsair dominator ram on a sabertooth x58 mobo, alongside this I have crossfired 7970s an SSD and a 850w seasonic psu which will all be staying.
The current colour theme I have is blue so anything blue or black would be preferred, I've had a quick look the hyper x fury ram which seems fairly good and in blue/white and looked at the rampage iv black edition but that looks a bit pricey and overkill for what I'd be using the PC for which would be mainly gaming with a bit of photo and video editing. PC is already gpu and cpu water cooled so that would be mostly moving over as well and hopefully the xspc raystorm block I have will be compatable with the new cpu. I'm also eyeing up the 900d as a new case to replace my HAF-X.
any suggestions greatly appreciated and as I said earlier it's not a build that will be happening urgently so could gather parts gradually and wait if theirs something worth waiting for on the horizon.
