What would be a great MB to go with Sandy?

ASUS Sabertooth X79? Would the fire wire on this unit be compatible with audio needs?

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Thanks guys I appreciate your help.

Has anyone had success with the GeForce GTX 560 Ti in these builds? It's a cheaper way to get CUDA performance.


So close now. ;-)

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Has anyone used a PNY Quadro 2000 1GBin their build with success? This would make a great video editing card but it also needs to get along with my DAW. Any conflicts?

Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD5

Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD5 w/ DualDDR3 2200, 7.1 Audio, etc.

Is this a worthwhile purchase? I like the triple crossfire. Want to use this machine for video editing also (different boot disc).

Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7

Is the Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7 a suitable MB or is there better proven ones. I like the crossfire 3 so I can run 3 screens eventually.
