so today i finally decided that i would stick with upgrading my current rig rather than doing quite a bit more and switch over to intel (just getting mobo rather then mobo and cpu). currently the mobo would run
8gb of 1333 ram
radeon 6850
fx 6100
i would like it to have/be:
compatable with 8350 and future chipset
crossfire is a plus but not majorly needed
quite a few sata 6 gb/s ports (at least 6 please)
under $160 USD if its good i may splurge an extra 20 or 40 bucks
be able to handle basic raid setups (4 drives in raid 0, etc)
at least one pcie 2.0 or higher port
some other expansion port for sound cards and such
decent at overclocking
thanks for any advice
ps
i also at this time i plan to upgrade from windows 7 home to windows 7 pro (or windows 8 havent decided yet)
some mobos i have been looking at :
