I have an option at hand and I have an important question.
I building a completely new rig with the Sapphire HD7950 and I am afraid if I buy the GIGABYTE GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 LGA 1155 it may get in the way or just straight up not fit.
I was going to buy the AsRock Extreme 3 Gen 3 with the 7950 but I can get a bundle with the gigabyte and get a OCZ SSD that I would otherwise not have.
If I get the gigabyte I get
+ Better monitor
+ SSD
- Not as good RAM ( Kingston HyperX 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX (Model:KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX) )
If I get the AsRock
- Less of a good monitor ( smaller and has speakers which I dont want )
- No SSD ( which I want to install my OS onto )
+ I get better ram I think G SKILL SNIPER SERIES( http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231460 )
BUT my main concern is if the card will fit. As this is my first big purchase for computers AND in general for online, ( close to 2000$ ) I REALLY don't want to finally recieve all my parts and find out it dont fit just to have an SSD that I don't REALLY need.
Anyone with these boards can help me !!!>>>
Thanks in advanced
