Hey guys, I'm going to grab myself the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T in my new build, but I'm having trouble picking a MOBO. I was thinking the GIGABYTE GA-890XA but the ram speed isn't very good:
"DDR3 1866(OC)*/1333/1066
* To reach DDR3 1866 MHz or above, you must install two memory modules and install them in the DDR3_3 and DDR3_4 memory sockets."
I'm thinking DDR3 2000 should be ideal..
I'm going for 12gb 4x3gig sticks. Lots of USB ports; just a good MOBO that won't steer me wrong. This is my first build and I want it to be a good one! I'm grabbing the GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit as well, although I'm seeing some of the 465's going for the same price as the 460 here:

Here's what I'm going by:

Let's get me a sick build!
Looking forward to hearing from you!
