New Computer Build!!!!!!

Jack Bauer · 06-09-2007, 11:11 PM

I am going to be upgrading a few things on my computer. I am changing my CPU, RAM, Motherboard and Harddrive. You can see the old and new parts in my sig.

Motherboard

Ram

HDD

How do these parts look. I am planning on overclocking so are the ram and motherboard good overclocking for like over 3 GHz?

2 things.

1. I'd advise getting the newest revision of the DS3 (I think they fixed soundcard issues)

2. That RAM is 1.9v and the DS3 is supposed to only boot with 1.8v, it might work but if I'd were you I'd get the G.Skill with "5" latencies to be on the safe side because those are made to boot at 1.8v. You could tighten the timings from there if you wanted, boosting voltages as required.
