Alright, I'm going to give up what I'm buying/what I've bought, and try to give a good idea what I may be using it for.
I've got an i5-2500k (not sure I'm going to over clock, but wanted the option to)
4GB DDR3 1300 RAM, have a 1TB 7200rpm drive, eventually getting a SSD for the OS and some games, have a 950W psu. Getting one (and eventually 2 for CFX) Radeon 6950....I'm reading this, and it's a mess, sorry, it's my first time posting for help, first time building a pc....
I plan on playing games. Lots of games. There may come a time when photo editing will happen, but primarily this is going to be a gaming rig. I don't torrent, don't plan on needing to swap massive amounts of data, don't plan on using VM's...not sure what else I might use it for... ask me about ______ if you think it's worth looking at, cause I just don't know. Been blissfully ignorant for too long. I've heard the term p67, and the guy at microcenter tried to sale me a sabertooth p67, but other than that, I know nothing....
Thanks for any help.
