Right now I have a tri-sli asrock extrme 9 x79 mobo with the LGA 2011 Socket, 16GB of Ram, I can't remember the speed, but its decently low latency. a Corsair Neutron 240gb SSD and a 1 TB data drive and an i7 3820 Oh and the terrible intel water cooling system. *edit and a 850 watt psu"
Now I can't really justify getting a new mobo for the newest socket i7 processors just due to the extra accrued cost vs the benefit they provide. And those video cards are just placeholders I will probably wait until either 8GB model release "since devs who shall not be named make terribly optimized games want to use ridiculous amounts of GPU ram nowadays" Or maybe AMD will come out with something tasty, and then the price drops, who knows.
But I am pretty much just wondering things like how does the i7-4930k perform as far as overclocking, what kind of temps do you guys get with it, How does it run as far as multi tasking things, like rendering videos while playing a pretty intense game. Anybody have experience with this processor?
*edit* and for the third video card slot I just planned on using one of my GTX 680s as a dedicated PhysX card, I know its not really worth it 99% of the time, but, since I already have them, may as well use one, I'll probably give the other to a needy friend.
Anyone have experience running dedicated PhysX? I've seen reviews from people running crazy PhysX stress test benchmarks and seeing how much of a difference it makes, but does anyone have real world gaming experience?
