^his name says it all (lmao)
Give him a break yaar. Atleast he tried to help no?

@Master Mind!! Core i7 is LGA1366 but the board you mentioned is a LGA1156 mobo, which supports the 1156's i7 series. And that mobo dont support Tri Channel either because 1156 is Dual Channel Supported.

Baqi rest of the specifications are good.

btw ... Exclude the CM600 .... Crap PSU.

^sorry, I got a bit carried away :p
Yea When you dont? :p
lol

@Raheel!!
Keep in mind If you are gonna purchase an i7 system, its gonna cost your above 50k ONLY for mobo+processor+rams.
So decide now .. If you can spend atleast 80k then By all means go ahead ;)

we planned a lot but what the hake 1156 and 1366 if one socket is available than thier is no problems
we are gona purchase only mobo+processor+rams+chassis+psu (no hard disk and np gpu right now)

LGA1156 iz the way to go for mainstream users
this platform aint gonna get a Full stop as it was launched just last month

the LGA1366 iz an Enthusiast Platform
Intels latest and Fastest Processors will be launched on it like the upcoming Core i9

but simple question iz tht can an average mainstream user afford 999$ Processors?

LGA1156 iz the answer
the i5 iz in some cases faster than i7 920
while the i7 860 of LGA1156 lies in between the entire i7 900 Line up

i would suggest 1366 platform
i7 920
msi x58 pro
3 gb ddr3 1600
cm690 chasis

and as far as people are saying that i9(1366 processor) will be of 1k $
well yeah it will be but it will come down in price...thats for sure
when the first quad q6600 came out it was of 900$
but after a couple of months its prioce dropped to 300$

and my guess is that the i9 would drop to 400-600$ range after 3-4 moths..

@Raheel!! If you are buying a rig for just gaming purposes, then i5 is recommended because you will get almost same performance as i7 920. But if you are buying the rig for Business Purposes, then i dont think you should buy less than i7 (but that also depends on the Program you use e.g. If you are into 3d Rendering then surely you will be needing more CPU Power)
