Batwing~SPARTA~ Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Not sure when the X60 will be out, however looking at Intel direction I d say pay attention to the Socket. I m ready to bet X60 will be on the latest one therefore many i7 1366 gen will be cut out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunthar~SPARTA~ Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 Holy shit, did you rob a bank? Nope it is my upgrade time, I usually upgrade my comp every couple of years. I never spend less than 1500 on a CPU this one will set me back about 2400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is very nice, I would suggest the 580GTX instead of the 570 GTX, but the rest is very solid. Dump the special network card & put the extra money to the 580GTX. I don't think you need to RAID for SSD, I would buy one 240GB SSD Nice selection G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skaz~SPARTA~ Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 i think you should go for 2nd gen intel i7 processors. and definetely go for the 580. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donziboy2 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Ya shoot for a i5 2500k or i7 2600k. They are also fazing out the X58's. I dont see a need for 24 gigs of ram... Less your going for a ram drive. Check this out CPU cooling and a water cooled gtx580 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
