I currently have a OCUK bundle i purchased almost 3 years back now, i7920 oc to 4Ghz, i was almost going to upgrade to a sandy bundle earlier in the year but i got the advice here that it was not worth it, now i am really after the sata 3 and usb 3 function i dont currently have, i have tried pci control cards for this but dont get anywhere near the speeds i should. So advice time again :) should i upgrade to a ivy i7 oc bundle or is it better just to get a Gigabyte X58 G1 Sniper Intel X58 (Socket 1366) motherboard and keep my old cpu and ram? I use mainly for gaming my gpu is a 7970. Looking at buying in 7 weeks when i come home on leave. Thanks in advance!
 
Thanks for the reply, the usb 3.0 is From akasa and i have the latest driver, i hardly get usb 2.0 speeds, akasa suggested i upgrade my motherboard bios, but i got told i would loose my oc if i done that. Sata controller as far as i can tell is up to date.
