hi guys
after several years i'm looking to build a new rig for myself and i'm a bit confused with the compatibility of some parts.
after many hours of reading & viewing reviews (a big THX to TTL at this point! you're doing a great job!) on this topic i wan't to go with the following configuration:
[xml]
• Case: -- Cooler Master 690 II Advanced
• Mainboard: -- Asus P8Z68-V Pro
• CPU: -- Intel Core i7 2600k
• CPU-Cooler: -- Noctua NH-D14
• RAM: -- Mushkin Radioactive 997005 - 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3-1600 CL9-9-9-24
• GPU: -- HIS Radeon HD 6870 Eyefinity, 1024MB GDDR5
• SSD (Win7): -- Crucial RealSSD C300 2,5" SSD 128 GB
• HDD (Data): -- Western Digital Caviar Green WD20EARX 64MB, 2000GB
• PSU: -- 530W be quiet! Pure Power L7 80+
[/xml]
My goal is to get a configuration that will do it for another several years under these aspects:
• i'm not planing to overclock now, but maybe in the future
• i'm not an hardcore-gamer
• i'm working with photo- & video-editing programs and maybe some 3d-rendering in the future
the last point is why i want to have a safe amount of ram combined with these parts.
and after watching ttl's videos i'm very attracted to the radioactive-series of mushkin.
unfortunately asus haven't listed these ram's on the qvl to the P8Z68-V Pro.
can someone confirm these will (or not) work with the asus-board?
So, what do you guys think of this combination?
i'm open to any suggestion.
Thx in advance!
