Criticize my upgrade
So, it seems my PC is sort of dead, read here:
http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/help ... ot-814365/
Since I think there is no point to save a AM2 PC, I will do a partial built:
AMD Phenom II X4 9X5 BE or AMD Phenom II X3 720 BE
NH-U12P
M4A78T-E
some DDR3 2x2GB
Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB
CM Haf 932 or Inwin Maelstrom
Some questions and comments
1) Since AM3 mobo support only DDR3-1600 (oc), is it ok to get DDR-1800 or higher? Because I see some of them are the same price as lower speed memory.
2) Will the NH-U12P block any ram slot in M4A78T-E?
3) The PC is a gaming machine with light development work.
4) I heard AM3 has problem with SSD. If I am to get a SSD down the road, will this cause problems?
5) Is i5 a better choice?
6) How's the onboard audio in the M4A78T-E? My current PC has a audigy 1 and I don't think I will use it anymore.
