Hello everyone!
I need help badly on making an important decision in regards to building my new computer.
The first question is, should I get the LGA 1366 or the 1155? I am leaning towards the 1155 as its newer technology, and in that it supports the i7-2600k. Although the 1366 supports 6 cores, whereas the 1155 I believe doesnt?
Second question is, should I even get the 1366 or 1155, or wait for the LGA 2011 (Q3 of 2011), which will be the successor to the 1366?
Now, currently I am running an e8400, with a 9600 gt grahpics card, and don't do extreme overclocking, nor do I do extreme gaming. So I wouldn't mind just upgrading my graphics to an evga 570 sc for now, and then upgrade my computer in the future.
However, my take is that if I wait till Q3 of this year 2011, which is around July to Sept, something again new will come out around the corner, and then you end up waiting for ever and ever.
What is your take on this guys? Help in this matter would be highly appreciated. And should I make the decision to get the computer now, I will post my specs and get opinions on a new thread.
Thanks!!
