MB:(No idea) ASUS Z68 or P67? Which is better?
RAM:Kingston Hyper-X 4GB/1600Mhz.
GPU:AMD Radeon 6790.

OS:Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit.
CASE:CiT Vantage 8818B Midi Tower PC Case.
 
Get the XFX, their closest RMA centre is in Hong Kong, the other brands are (as well as XFX) have their RMA centres in Europe/USA

Get the Z68 board

Change HDD to Samsung F3 1TB

Everything else looks good.
 
Eh.. can please explain to me the different between Z68 and P67 cause Z68 is like $80sgd more then the P67. Asus P8P67-M-B3,ASUS P8Z68-V LE
 
Get the P67 if you're on a budget then. From what I've read, Z68 has:

1) Integrated graphics support
2) Use of Quicksync for video transcoding
3) SSD Caching
 
Integrated graphics support means? Sorry Im asking so much cause I don't wish to get a features that I don't use. :)
 
OH tys for info... I think im getting the P67. But what if i can't get XFX in singapore? Cause I hardly seen the XFX but the sapphire.. How about sapphire? Whats the differents other then the RMA(And whats RMA LOL)? So I get Samsung F3 1TB as you said.. :)

+1 on the F3 1tb. I have one and it's crazy fast. One of the 1tb WD blacks (the WD1001FALS) is actually slower than the F3 due to its smaller platter size. Also, if you want to get a REALLY reliable drive, you can get the Samsung Spinpoint F3R 1tb (model number HE103SJ instead of HD103SJ), which comes with a 5 year warranty but still costs less than the Caviar Black. Pretty awesome. :)

About the video card, you'd probably do well with the XFX or the Sapphire, although XFX cards have a lifetime limited warranty.
