Advice on new PC, what to get to power Core 2 Quad Q9450? - 2008/05/23 10:33 Hello everyone, I'm planning to upgrade my current PC and didn't push thru last time. My current rig is built around an ABIT IP35 Pro and and an Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 with twice 2GB Team Extreem DDR2 1066MHz memory, powered with an MSI GeForce 8800 GTX OC edition. I've ordered an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 which is arriving tomorrow and my question is, I want to have Quad SLI and I don't know what motherboard would be better. I want something not so expensive and would let me do Quad SLI with two GeForce 9800 GX2 and would a the SilverStone DA750 power supply do the job?

And I plan to get another two 2GB Team Extreem 1066MHz memory modules or should I change it also with the new board? I want to try out DDR3 but last I check it was still too expensive and hard to come by here were I live, if their is a good motherboard for DDR3 and the DDR3 that's not too expensive can you guys tell me which brand and model? I was just thinking about a small upgrade, and I have the Core 2 Quad Q9450 and was planning on a GeForce 9800 GX2 and maybe later on adding another GeForce 9800 GX2, what is your though on this? And I wanted to know what's your advise on the following? Having a hard time deciding so need your advice thanks!

Future System Specifications...
- Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 2.66GHz Processor
- Good bang of the buck, though fast Mainboard?
- Team Extreem DDR2 Mmory of 1066MHz or change?
- GeForce 9800 GX2 or any other suggestions?
- SilverStone DA750 750W Power Supply

Re:Advice on new PC, what to get to power Core 2 Quad Q9450? - 2008/05/23 19:21 Well I would say to hold your horses and wait another month... Why you will ask and that is very simple, next month normally both ATI and NVIDIA are releasing their newest generation graphics cards and the GeForce GTX 280, yes new naming convention would be faster than a GeForce 9800 GX2, and featuring quite a lot of processing power...
