Is this going to be a good motherboard for me?

Is this a good motherboard? I want to be able to run SLI in the future and want the PC to be fairly future proof, ya know?

Here is the build:

Should make a nice rig You could save some money and get a better cooler by going with a Hyper 212 EVO rather than the h55, need a H100 to top the EVO cooling wise, also might consider 1866 DRAM, something like the GSkill Snipers or even better their Tridents

For whatever reason I can't load any pcpartpicker pages... Could you put the edited build together for me? I hope its not asking too much... thanks!

Think you need an account to make a list up and save with PP, I don't use it, should be able to go in and edit your list remove what you don't want and just add the different (and when looking at the Snipers in 1866, they have the 2133 sticks at the same price so would go with that set

Oh, cool! Thanks so much for the help?

EDIT: Should I be more worried about CAS latency or 1866 and 2133? Cuz with the 1866 I can get 9 CAS with the 2133 I get 11 CAS

How about this? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Qg3LwP

 

[GetOwnedGaming]

So the question is: 2133 with 11 CAS or 1866 with 9 CAS?

I didn't really understand what that was saying... I want to know weather CAS 9 1600 or CAS 11 2133 is better... Thanks in advance.

Actually they are about equal.

Yep, 2133 is a bit better performance wise from the wider bandwidth, it can use more DRAM in a single action
