Was planning to buy next week a c2d 8500 but after some readings switched to Phenom II 940 for better gaming and same price 189.99 $
Below are two mobos I found:
1- Gigabyte GA-MA790GP supports DDR2 @ 1200Mhz price=129.9$
2- Gigabyte GA-MA790X supports DDR2@1333Mhz price=109.9$
Does the CPU support 1200 DDR2 ? what about DDR3 can we found them or we have to OC ?
Is it worth it to pay the difference or shall I go for decent DDR2 800/1033 and buy additional 2 MB with the extra money?
Appreciate your input...
