Any suggestions my specs are in my sig. :D im thinking one of these http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8Z77M/ which i can get for $112
Nothing is wrong with my current one, only problem is i would like my ram to run at 1600mhz instead of 1333mhz, its a nice little motherboard but wasn't the one I originally wanted its all they had in stock at the time :( .
I don't mean to hijack the thread, and I guess it's kind of related:
What kind of power supply would you need for this motherboard with the hardware OP has? And would an ATI 6950 2GB instead be different as far as the PSU goes?
I've debated upgrading, and if I did sometime soon I'd have a similar system and go for a motherboard in a around this one's price range. My difference would be that I have a 6950 2GB instead.

thanks for any help (:
i would say 500w-650w would be good... i'm fairly sure this is an accurate estimate, but i'm not the best source for power supply information however. so maybe let someone else chime in here before you take my word on it.
All other specs being the same, you aren't going to see ANY performance increase going from 1333 to 1600 unless you are looking for a few hundred points in a benchmark or if you can notice fractions of a single frame per second in games.

I'll probably check it out more to make sure before I actually make an upgrade, but that is at least sounding good!
I got a 600w one not too long ago when I upgraded my graphics card.
