Building first PC for quality gaming HELP!

ah umm you just need to make sure the mobo supports w/e speed of ram you getting like i have the P6X58D which if i remeber right supports ram up to DDR3-2000 (although it might be a little higher) just look in the mobo manual on there support website and it will tell you supported ram speeds but i think the vengeance ram will be fine on ur mobo but i would still double check on the manual that it is supported
you do not want to mess around with corsair in the returns department i had 6gbs of Dominator GT DDr3-2000 ($400) and it was fualty and i returned but it took 5mths to hear back and by then they did not manufacture the specific stick anymore so i had to downgrade to DDr3-1866 (200$) but fortunatly they did refund all the money lol |
|
I think it does support it...Is it the DDR3 that needs to match the motherboard?
|
|
well thats part of it the other needs to be the speed like the 1333 or 1600 or 1866 or 2000 after ddr3
|
|
Yeah well heres what it says if you read it. Heres the link.

I think these kinds are the one Hibachi Suggested to me...

a few of the item i tried ordering, but they are out of stock. I can't seem to be able to find them, or there a multiple copies of it. I'm afraid I'm going to buy the wrong one.
Right now I'm currently looking for the: Motherboard. CPU. |
|
I could really use your help hibachi
|
|
So far I have everything I need, except for the motherboard and the CPU I was able to find them before but I can't find them on Newegg anymore.

i5-2500k is still being sold, but its replacement model right now is i5-3570k. Things have changed since then.
As for the motherboard, check out Z77 boards. Some of the options: - BIOSTAR TZ77XE3 ATX Motherboard @ $110 (From my PC build guide) Use pcpartpicker.com, might help with finding deals on other parts you may have already found. |

So does that mean that the CPU before is unavailable?
I'm not sure which one is correct...The i5-2500k or the i5-3570k... Or I mean is the 3570k better than the 2500k? |

Would this work with the rest of the build? |
|
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157294
And this would work with the build as well? |
|
i5-2500k is available. Its direct successor is i5-3570k. Yes, the 3570k is slightly better than the 2500k, but worse heat generation when overclocked.
i5-2500k will still work. Note I said Extreme4, not Extreme4-M. Don't bother with the -M version. |
|
Okay so I'm gonna order the i5-2500k link that I posted, but what about extreme4? The only one i could find was the -M version.

Thanks Hibachi (:
