Hey guys, im fairly new here and i wanted some opinions on my motherboard and memory. So i have a MSi H61 micro mobo, iv had it running for about 6 monthe with no problems. With all the great deals floating around i was thinking about upgrading my mobo to support higher memory frequencys and maybe get some really nice and easy to use features. Im also considering running SLI in the near future, so i would like something thats a bit futureproof. However when i look at the features on the diffrent chipsets i dont see much more than some overclocking features...i do not overclock at all...mostly because i dont know how and i would kill myself if i ruined my system. So if i could get some suggestions on some full sized boards that wont empty my pockets that would be great. Also if i decide not to upgrade the mobo and maybe just get new memory, will my mobo that supports 1333 ram support 1600? the 1600 ram that i want runs at 1.5v and thats the highest my mobo will support, i know that the mobo will clock the ram down to 1333 anyway, but im worried about any kind of compatibility issues...
I also run a 3.1g sandy bridge processor if that helps any.
So like i said i would love to upgrade...and i would like all my componets to run at optimal speeds without overclocking...
so again any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time. :]
