Which board is best to use with this CPU?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_re=sandy_bridge_i7-_-19-115-070-_-Product

It should support triple channel, and have these ports.
1 HDMI port
1 DVI port


Thank you.

You ever thought of having a graphics card instead of on-board graphics? Just an option as on-board sux.

Also whats your budget?

I was under the impression that 1155 sockets (Sandy Bridge) did not support triple channel.
Choices either are : settle for a dual channel machine, or select an older version of an i7

Thank you. I guess I will have to settle with double channels.
