This is what i currently have: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/245264/ocz-gold-ddr3-pc3-12800-low-voltage-dual-channel/specificaties/ http://www.electrobyt.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2638#.VLrL4keG8eg This is what is for sale: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/224391/ocz-gold-ddr3-pc3-12800-low-voltage-triple-channel/specificaties/ http://www.electrobyt.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2639#.VLrMb0eG8eg The idea: I have read you can use triple channel DDR3 in an dual channel DDR3 slot and it will work as single channel DDR3 (disatvantage). But i need added Memory with thesame CAS of my current memory i think, so i pick that because i have children and a wife so no money. Sorry if this is posted in the wrong subthread, it has hardly anything to do with overclocking. I just didnt saw the point of making another topic for thesame PC (upgrade)

Awesome, i want to use the money for a headset anyway! Many thanks for the help, to all of you! 1 Last question popped up considering buying the memory. The vendor wants to be sure i could use it because the memory i have is basically triple channel memory. If my research is correct i need more memory with the same CAS anyhow in the 2 blacks lots. So although it is triple channel memory and although the second set in the black slots will only work as single channel memory (disadvantage) i am still better buying 2 times 2GB of the same vendor/type. Am i right here you badasses?

I can get the MSI P55A-GD65 for 50 euro only. This board has 2 sata3 and 2 usb3.0. My current board has none of those.

187 euro incl. shipping for an R9 290 52 euro incl. shipping for an noctua D14 40 euro incl. shippping for 2 sticks of 2GB OCZ gold PC3 12800 internal memory That is a total of 280 euro, so i have 70 euro left for a motherboard. Would it be better if i did replace the motherboard? What GL1156 socket based motherboards have usb 3.0, better PCI-e slots, have better sata ports and is a well known oc motherboard plz? Maybe i can find it, i am resourcefull

I love Koolaid

I only have 4GB Here is my current build. The SSD has been replaced with vertex 450 by ocz because the original ssd broke down but was still in waranty. https://www.dropbox.com/s/z30y5hr6clbm2eq/Current.jpg?dl=0 I can buy 4GB RAM of thesame brand/type for about 50 euro and an R9 290 GPU for 180 euro. Then i would wrap this one up and make a new build in about 2 years time. I would want to play gta5 and battlefield4 with this pc. What are your toughts? Is my plan making sense?

Many thanks for the replies buddies!

People are selling their d14's in favor of closed water loops. I bought a d14 for half the retail price. So I will overclock my i5 760. I also need more memory. Should I buy 4gb more of the same memory for 50 Euros? Or should I install a new 16gb kit with higher clocks that I can use in my new build 2 years later?

Thx, i have a Asus P7H55-V iH55, SATA300, GLAN BTW. Cooler, I need to buy it but it is an investment. Once you have it you can use it indefinitely as long as you maintain/replace the fans. Thanks again for the replies!

Hi guys, I have an I5 760 still going strong. Should i buy a new cpu and mobo? 760's go all the way up too 4ghz but i have never oc'd myself. I have a m8 with experience who could help me or should i invest in other hardware? Many thanks in advance, Peter
