Ok so im going to have a tad more money to work with so i was wondering if i should stick with the cheaper eVGA 780i FTW or spring for the more expensive (but more future upgrade paths) eVGA 790i FTW and go with that.
well i realize that, but It will be prob the end of the month before i really start buying things, and im trying to leave myself the easiest path to upgrade down the road. And seeing how DDR3 is going to be the dominant tech in the years to come... that would be best right?
DDR3 is really overpriced right now, go with 750i, or 780i.
Well if you get the really high performance DDR2's that go beyond 1066 then DDR3 isn't that much more.
Well unless you go for the 2000 versions, DDR3 ain't something that you can brag about except for being rich.
Nehalem is NOT compatible with current motherboards. It utilizes a different socket, has a different physical pin count, and uses the X58 chipset.well i realize that, but It will be prob the end of the month before i really start buying things, and im trying to leave myself the easiest path to upgrade down the road. And seeing how DDR3 is going to be the dominant tech in the years to come... that would be best right?
BTW i thought i read somewhere that the 790i will be compatible with the nehalem... don't think its true but .... on that note, is there a mainboard that is IS compatible with the nehalem
