alright im about ready to order, i just need someones opinion on like liquid cooling or stuff, my one friend i asked said i should for sure get that so idk
liquid cooling is just a hastle, and a good quality air cooler from nactua or corsair or whatever will perfrom just as good as the liquid minus the hastle, your friend really doesn't seem too bright.
i will soon just a bit busy todayPlease post your full and final system for us to review (preferably type the actual names and hyperlink them).
the 990X is a waste, only a few things will take advantage of the extra 2 cores, and in everything else the 2600k will be faster than it, and also the 990X is a different socket too, and that socket won't recieve any new cpu's, but the lga1155 is getting ivy bridge i believe, and if you want a 6 core, then at the beggining of next year they are coming out with lga2011 and the sandy bridge e which will be like a 6 core 12 thread 2600k style cpu, where the 2600k is 4 core 8 threads.
there's always a ton of new stuff coming out, bulldozer is coming soon, then ivy bridge and sand bridge e, then the updated bulldozers in january too, highest at launch is 8150p, in jan they got the 8170, pretty saan they will also have the 28nm gpu cores meaning the hd 7000's and gtx 600's, the computer market is the fastest moving/eveolving market there is,
the stuff you picked will probably max out everything for the next year and a half or so, a year at least, but you're also running three monitors and all, if you went to one i'd be saying more like 3 years probably, but like i said, the tech moves so fast and the games mave as fast as the tech, just look at battlefield 3 vs like cod 4 which when bf3 is out it would be about 4 years old, just look at the difference in detail from bf3's commersials of gameplay and cod 4 gameplay, the difference is rediculous, now i just wanna see bf3 v cod:mw3
but you should be fine, and in a year you can just get a new ive bridge i7 if you want to, which this'll still be a killer cpu then too, and new gpu's, which these'll still be killers too, you'll just need to wait and see, but by then there'll be trinity cpu's coming soon and the next gen of intel cpu's and both gpu's too.
k, well check back then cuz the prices will have dropped and new things will be out then.
i do need one, but im not starting anything major this year, for the first semester i may be finishing up high school shit i never did through the college(long story my school ****ed me over and its been a pain in the ass for 4 years cause of it)don't you still need a comp for college? The next gen of i's will have 2 sockets, for 6 cores it will need a new one, but for 4 you can still use the lga1155 like the current ones, so that's a simple upgrade, and if bulldozer is better once those are out, then you can get a new mobo and bulldozer for ~650 for good ones or get a good am3+ now and just a new cpu, and the other stuff will still work on there, you'll just have to reinstall and reload everything you had save, a simple 1tb backup drive will let you save everything for the mave and are fairly cheap, around 60-70 i think
in other words, you can get a am3+ and a 1100t now and just upgrade the cpu, or a new cpu and mobo if you'd like, or get a 2600k and a lga1155 now, and get the ivy bridge which will work with a 1155 later, and if you must, a lga2011 and a sb-e which will probably be like the 990X and cost almost 1k for the cpu alone.
could just grab a 200 buck netbook, good to have anyways to take to classes and stuff, cuz i don't think you need a 1.5k buck gaming laptop too
