and that is the sound card you want?

are you adding another GPU down the road?

what will your resolution be?

Thanks for the quick reply!

Yep that is the sound card I want!

No, I will not be adding a second GPU, I see no point in SLI when I am only going to be playing at a 1680x1050 Resolution.

right so then why the 1000w psu?

860w will be just fine for you if not the 750w

I forgot to tell you, if you don't play around with OC settings yourself, then drop the OC on the ram instead ask them for the fan for the ram which should be around $20 bucks

its talking about the difference of getting 1600MHz or 1333MHz if your stock fsb is at 1333.

read thru, look at the charts on the second page and you will see the difference is so minimal you won't notice it.

if you read the thread you will see that the 1600MHz ram is not necessary and has made no big difference the OC speed.

q9550's with 1333MHz ram have oc speed of 3.4 to 3.6GHz on this forum.

q9550's with 1600Mhz ram have oc speed of 3.4 to 3.6GHz on this forum.

q9650's with 1333Mhz ram have oc speed of 3.8 to 4.0GHz on this forum.

q9650's with 1600Mhz ram have oc speed of 3.8 to 4.0GHz on this forum.

the above speeds are all with liquid cooling

this is all explained via math and charts in the thread I sent you to


just like his 1333 fsb is oced to 1600

his 1333 ram can oc to 1600, and that is easy as heck cause its not much of a move up for a 1333MHz ram.

if you read that thread you see you can even do the same thing with a 1066MHz ram also.

You should really read that thread
