I have done a couple of searches and gone thru the first new pages of threads to see if anyone else has asked this question.
I am looking for advice on a MB for a new box that I am preparing to build.
I have a new i7 2600k that I will be using.
I am looking at Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR memory.
Cooling: ZALMAN CNPS10X Performa 120mm Long life CPU Cooler
I haven't OC'd anything for a couple of HW Gens, it looks like it's completely changed with the multiplier method. I plan on OC'ing to somewhere in the 4.2 - 4.4 area.
From what I've read I want to go with one of the new MSI Z77 boards. Does PCI-E 3.0 work with a Sandy Bridge?
Does anyone have experience with the Z77 chipset and Sandy Bridge? Gotchas? Things to be aware of?
