Finally Getting an 8-CORE-Build
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2018 10:42 pm
Hi everybody. Im finally upgrading my build wanted to make sure im buying the right parts.
main parts:
Gigabyte X299 UD4 Motherboard
i7820X 8-core
GTX 1080 FE
Benq BL2711U connectined via HDMI2. the motherboard doesn't have HDMI2 but the video card does. that should be ok, right?
So there are 2 things im not sure about.
1) that motherboard is the cheapest X299 one. I only use ONE 1TB SSD and one graphics card. I think i dont need any extras of the more expensive X299 motherboards, right?
2) I would like to start using the system with my old ram for about 1 month. but they are just 1600mhz. I know faster ram will work better with this processor and I will upgrade to 16GB with at least 3600mhz within a month. But can i use it with the 1600mhz ones at all for a month?
Any input would be awesome. THANX
