So I'm thinkin of getting rid of my current rig and picking up something new. I want small form factor, but more options than an itx board provides, Unless of course someone can show me a itx board with a pcie 16 and pcie.
so far this is what I am looking at.
AMD PII 955BE
Asus 785G Evo Mobo
4GB 2x2GB G.Skill Trident DDR3 1600
WD Caviar 1TB or some other HDD for a reasonable ( $90 or less CAD) price
Samsung DVD writer
DX11 vid card, depending on benchmarks
Sound card, depending on left over budget
Lian li V351B matx case (the one from this build http://www.million-dollar-pc.com/system … -v350b.htm)
Enermax liberty 620w modular power supply
Swiftech MCP655 pump
Swiftech quiet power dual radiator
Swiftech apogee w/ am2+ hold down bracket
Primochill Typhoon III Dual INLET/OUTLET 2X 5.25IN Bay Reservoir & MCP655 Pump Top
Primochill white or clear 3/8 tubing
Gelid solutions green gamer fan 120mm x3 or Gelid solutions silent White fan 120mm x3
Gpu block depending on card.
bitspower fittngs.
Question is, I dont know AMD so much atm, what is a good Matx mobo for the this build. Only moderate OCing and pretty heavy gaming to be done here. Also any suggestions on RAM I've heard good things about G.Skill but dont have any experience with them. This ram seemed good for a reasonalble price.
