I'm going to be coming into a bit of monies soon and of course it's time for a new system build
In general I used AMD for 99% of my builds but this time I think I'm going to go with Intel.
I just started researching the Intel stuff and figured this is a good place to come for some advice.
I want to build a quad core for mostly gaming but will also use it as a DAW.
I don't plan to OC very much if any right now, maybe if there's a need for it down the road.
I most likely will get a 9800GTX.
But I'm not sure about which CPU, (Intel seems to have half a dozen choices) or chipset to go with. Also should I go with DDR3 or a DDR2 board?
I also want it to be very quiet.
Not too much of an order,,heh
Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
ZoSo
