But I had a 2500k and I'm getting the p8
and the sabertooth is a P67 derp, but i dont like the black case it has on top of it.
H100 is the best cooler, its self contained liquid cooling so I dont need to replace the water at all, it isn't your everyday generic liquid cooler, and its quiet. I didnt get all this just to play GTA4, im not some dumbass kid, I utilize this computer to its full potential in many different ways, mainly 3d scenes and vray in 3dsmax and animating.
Forgot that you already own the 2500k because you are using a Z68 and a 2500k pretty much is a waste of money with that chipset.
Also you don't have to tell me all that, I know my stuff. The sabertooth is only used for extreme OC and as long as you dont plan on cooling your hardware with LN2 its a waste of money, also who cares for how it looks like? Same for the H100, wasted money again on P67 boards where you can overclock so easily.
If you work with 3D apps, why bother with a i2500k in the first place? Get yourself a Xeon.
I dont need a Xeon, i actually switched from the sabertooth p67 to a p8z68 deluxe, its great, especially with the H100.
I dont understand what your talking about, i got the 2600k and with the H100 and the p8 mobo its a perfect combo, in my corsair 650D midtower with all my fans the dimm slots dont burn out, the mobo temp is actually at 62 F.
Please dont tell me to get a xeon, its a budgeted computer, it isnt like I need something that high of power when i could spend less on something thats very equivalent. Xeon processors are good for servers. the i7 has hyper threading. I just need to get a new GPU, i think Arma 2 is processor intensive and utilizes some of the graphics card, but mainly CPU, the gpu is only bad on opengl processing like icenhancer because of the clock speed bieng so low. I think ill save my money and get a 570HD or get a 560ti from my friend.
