I've been out of the hardware scene for a couple of years now and is looking to build a new gaming PC this year. I don't do folding/video editing. Gaming only at 1920x1080.
Memory express has this combo deal right now: Intel Core
and it comes with a 2500k and this Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3 mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3 w/ DDR3 2133, 7.1 Audio, Gigabit Lan, CrossFireX / SLI at Memory Express
I'm wondering if it's a decent deal that I should jump on. I only use single GPU and don't really care to overclock much.
I would also like some advice on which RAM to purchase. Would any 2x4Gb DDR3 1600 be fine, or should I get higher clock speeds?
Edit: This mobo is now no go for me as I need eSata
