First off, would just like to say hey as this is my first post!
So I'm planning on buying a new CPU and Mobo, the CPU I'm going to buy is http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-358-IN
And the Mobo I was interested in was the http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-476-AS&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=1990
However I noticed the Mobo is only x8 x8 for dual cards, and realistically I would like x16 x16 for my dual 5870's, but I've been unable to find a mobo that has this.
If anyone could point me in the direction of one that would be great, or if you think that Mobo would be fine just as it is that would also be good.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Would also like to say that this machine is ONLY for gaming, so perhaps the i5 2500k over the i7 2600k, not too sure though.
