medbor Posted December 5, 2010 Posted December 5, 2010 (edited) The 1050T does not overclockas far but easily over 4GHz, I would look at 945x4 vs 1050x6 though since the 945 easily goes as far as the others with that ram. the perfect choise you made is the G chipset, since you can use is without a dedicated graphics card later as a server/ give to a surfig/email/chatting person and keep your gpu Edit: Ram doesn't affect performavce (much) so go cheap and use a lower memory multiplier when overclocking, it is not noticable (except mem benchmarks) Most HDDs (even the 10k rpm ones, not SSDs) doesn't even fill PATA 133MB/s (the flat wide IDE cables you've seen in museums) not to mention SATA 1, so getting sata 3 (6Gb/s) for an HDD is absurd! SSDs on the other hand easily fills SATA2 these days, but i've not seen so many YET that supports SATA 6Gb/s. RAID0 SSDs is fastest (except for PCIe ones) Edited December 5, 2010 by medbor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoLoDreaM Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 Thanks for all the input so far everyone! However, I've since been wondering something else. How far along has onboard audio chips become? I currently am using an ancient Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS with a Logitech 2.1 setup. Is it worth it all keeping that sound card? I mean I'm no crazy audiophile, but I enjoy my sound quality too. Could I save the space in my rig and ditch the SB and use the onboard built onto the M4A89GTD?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could I save the space in my rig and ditch the SB and use the onboard built onto the M4A89GTD?? I use the on board sound cards and logitech x530 5.1 speakers. Sounds ok to me. I can see why a discrete high quality sound card would be worthwhile, but I think you would need decent speakers to get any real benefit.

jock52 Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 6 core all the way. For the same $$$ why not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock52 Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 A good headset/speaker set up will do you better for the money. I use onboard sound and its amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_bowtie Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 I use onboard sound for everything. Back in the day you used Sound cards to free up CPU cycles but in todays world it isnt necessary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoLoDreaM Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 I just want to update this thread. I finally got my system up and running. I am running my 2 9800GTs in SLI on an AMD board, even without the SLI bridge for now.
