Best socket 1155 onboard audio?

Not planning to get an X-fi platinum, what's the cheapest solution to get sub $200 mobo with the best onboard audio to go along with a 2500k?

SSD or Sandy Bridge upgrade options

The GA-P35 is a great board to OC, 3.6 OC isn't even that high compared to others. Many others get 3.9-4.0, but I'm running at 3.6 because that's the only speed I can get 48+ hours of stable prime95 on cpu. What speed RAM are you using? I'm running ram at 800, CPU clock at 9.0x400, so it'll be...

SSD or Sandy Bridge upgrade options

SB, SSD, man I just wish the world were a perfect place and I'd have both :) But for the average man, SB now and SSD later when the newer version drives down the prices of the older ones down to around $100 per 120gb would be the plan BTW, how will the Samsung F4 perform as a boot drive, since...

SSD or Sandy Bridge upgrade options

If I upgrade from a E8400 @ 3.6 to a i5-2500k @ 4.4, will I need a new PSU? (BTW my current PSU isn't 430, it's actually 520 - SeaSonic S12II 520 Bronze 520W).

SSD or Sandy Bridge upgrade options

Not sure if the prices of SSD's are going down further, but I want to hold out for a 120gb under $100, perhaps sometime later this year? I think the CPU/Mobo/Ram combo + the Samsung F4 2TB sounds good right now, although I really REALLY want the SSD too! I would hate to partition the 2TB into a...

SSD or Sandy Bridge upgrade options

I felt that the FPS increases were minimal. I got a good increase in SC2, but not as much as I wanted. Under ultra settings at 1080 my fps dips below 30's at times. CS: Source didn't even increase at all, still getting pretty much same fps except smoke runs smoother now. Overall, I expected a...

SSD or Sandy Bridge upgrade options

So after upgrading my 8800GT to a 5870, I wasn't so impressed with the performance upgrade. I'm thinking that there's a severe bottleneck in my system and am debating the best way to upgrade. My current rig: E8400 @ 3.6ghz with Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R 2x2gb of G Skill PC800 ram GPU Sapphire ATI...

Damn now that both the 470 and the 5870 is down to $200, can't figure out for the life of me which is a better deal... How's this compared to the Asus or Galaxy 470?
