Personally...ida passed on the 9950, I have one, and it dosnt break 3ghz for crap (or at least mine dosnt)

 

[morphus1]

Yea i just read more about it apparently both the mobo and the cpu are crap

just corrected my order

hope it worked..........Credit cards are evil

 

[gerikoh]

it doesn't have acc. just wait for the release of those new nforce chipsets if you want to go nvidia. otherwise, amd 790 chipset series with sb750 is the one for you

Budget?

 

[Lxcivic2k1]

9950 is great on the cheap but other then that the new PhII X3/X4 are the way to go and if you want overclocking with AMD, you pritty much have to stick to AMD chipsets. As long as you don't want to go SLI your golden.

Hate to say it but, should have gotten a Phenom II instead.

Thanks for the input guys i cancelled my purchase so im good. would love to go pII x3 but i dont want to go with the am3 socket as i have just brought some wicked ram (ddr2) i can see on that web site that there are some am2+/am3 boards? can that be? im in denamrk right now so here www.komplett.dk is where im getting my stuff any suggestions on a am2+ setup? have ram and can go without graphics card for a while.... want it to be under or around 3000 krowns/300 pound about 400 dollars

 

[bluedevil]

Good choice. The PIIs look very promising.

 

[CallmeRoth]

AM3 phenom 2 x3 processors work just fine in AM2 boards. im currently running a 720 BE @ 3.8ghz on my gigabyte AM2 board and im actually satisfied with what i have.(usually i find something i dont like so i get something new lol) really cant go wrong with a 790GX am2+ board and a phenom2 x3 or x4.

you just won't stop, will you?

720be pawns every e5xxx, e7xxx and the e8xxx (clock for clock) by means of performance and pricing period!

sorry but that's just the truth. now stop being such a fanboy by recommending intel builds in an amd thread. you'll just get pawned here

 

[morphus1]

opps i did it again meant i just spent cash without thinking sorry for the misunderstanding AND THANKS!!! heaps to you all im going p 2 x3 be with the 790gx

i advice you to heed that v8..its not that cool enough..i suggest go for the Xigmatek SD1283..its much effective and much affordable..
