Hi All,
I am trying to get all my pieces of components together. I got a good deal on this "ASUS EN8600GTS SILENT/HTDP/256M GeForce 8600GTS 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card" and want to know which Motherbaord is good and will it support this DDR3 and backward compatible?
1. What motherboard to get for this video? Preferably ASUS. Will the video works with the DDR2 board?
2. I got the "CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory" and will this work with the video card mentioned above. Can this support the DDR3 video card? Do I have to get the DDR3 memory to run the video card?
3. I'm planning on getting the E6850 CPU the 3.0 ghz.
Any suggestion on the board and why. The main concern is will it work well with the video and memory that already bought. I'm looking to use this for games and media applications. Also, for multitasking. Thanks for the help.
