A motherboard to match
I have everything picked out for my build except I seem to have trouble finding a motherboard to fit
CPU: Intel C2D E8500 @ 3.16 Graphics: GTX 260 RAM: DDR2 1066 My problem is the GTX 260 needs a PCIe 2.0 slot and most 2.0 slots have a standard of DDR3 RAM and I didnt really wanna spend the money on that, so I was thinking the EVGA 750i Mobo. Any other suggestions? |

I believe the GTX 260 has DDR3 RAM.

Why does it matter what kind of memory the graphics card has, it makes absolutely no difference.

Why spend so much money on a Rampage? You don't need it.
P5Q. |
