jpwake Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Hello! Here is a potential i7 build I am considering and would have a slight OC to the 3.4Ghz range. Primary use would be for use with music production, everyday use with some occasional gaming. Looking for thoughts, comments, feedback and suggestions? Thanks in advance!

sdy284 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 i would ditch the raptor. price/performance wise they really aren't worth it anymore. if you can fit your os/programs onto 60gb, this will give you MUCH more performance: Corsair SSD and for 1tb drives i'd recommend Samsung F3 or WD Black as these are the fastest 1tb drives out at the moment and finally, I would just try and find a used 920 for $200 or less rather than buying a 930. there's no difference besides a few hundred mhz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
