I didn't do a thorough investigation but a quick search yielded this page which has some gaming benchmarks comparing the two:

I just picked up this motherboard as well. So far I really like it, tons of options it. I don't really overclock though so most of it will go to waste on me. They just released a new BIOS update for it to, and yours may not of shipped with it. And SSD drives to top it off is super nice. I knew mine was going to be faster, especially compared to my old ass SATA 1 74GB Western Digital Raptor, but it really blew my mind. Windows was installed off DVD in less than 20 minutes. Updates downloaded and installed in around 30 minutes. |

So I pulled the trigger on a new build today. I'm hoping to have it built and running next week sometime.
Case: Rosewill Thor v2
PSU: Corsair AX850
Mobo: ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3
CPU: i5-2500k (hoping to get 4.5GHz)
Cooler: CM Hyper 212+ (push-pull config)
RAM: 8 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 (9-9-9-24)
Video: 2 x GTX 560 Ti 2 GB in SLI
SSD: 2 x OCZ Vertex 3 120 GB (One for OS, one for games)
I was really tempted to go with the Corsair H60 cooler but talked myself out of it. The Hyper 212+ offers similar performance for less than half the price. If a fan goes out I'll still be running, if an H60 goes out my system will be out of commission until I can replace it.
I had planned to get a large platter drive for data but apparently there has been some major flooding in Thailand and the cost of platter drives has gone through the roof. I have a large external for data. |

I sometimes reply to threads before I read through them based on the titles.
This time I stopped myself because posting a side profile pic was a bit personal.
Good thing I did, because my pic would have been a weeeeeeee bit off-topic.
Either way I forget what my specs are. I play at max detail etc at 65 fps (with vertical sync) so...good enough.
Here are some fun pics though!
Click this shit to see the pics.

Monitor 2: ASUS 19" Widescreen LCD DVI
Here are a few pics.
I have the CPU OC'd right now to only 3.8GHz. Vid Card is OC'd to 850MHz too. I am very careful of the Temps my shit is running at when I OC and I only just started a week ago and have been out of the game for a long time and haven't found much good intel on how hot shit can run. Any advice would be welcome.
Also I went with the two Raptors in raid 0 since I have experience with them. The SSD's looked nice but I was a little worried about them and some of the reviews I had come across.
Looking as a second 580 GTX for SLI just not sure if I wana dump the cash yet. |
