Mainly Purpose of New PC: I want to play the newely games in Ultra settings (maxed out settings). So mainly purpose of the PC will be hardcore gaming, so which one would you suggest, 8350 or 3570k. Please help. Regards.
no ssd, ssd's are only really good for speeding reboots and initial load times on data stored on them, you cant store that many games on a 128gb ssd.
unstead I say get a 32gb ram kit, partition the drive to 160gb(os and apps like office), the rest to games/downloads.
install fancy cache drive edition, give the drive 24gb cache with delayed write enabled at 10 seconds, drive edtion will cache both partitions creating a hybrid drive effect, this will speed up game and app load times far better then an ssd, also note: those ocz ssd's have kinda a bad rep for not being reliable, of 14 I have used, 8 or 9 had to be rma'd at least once due to firmware related issues...(its even worse on some other models we used for some custom builds for another business.)
my suggestion, if your gonna get an ssd, get an adata 900 series or samsung 840 series.
hope this helps, just my suggestion, also note: this motherboards better for overclocking then the sabertooth, I say this as a man who ownes 2 sabertooths and has use a few of the extreme4 in builds for people....the extreme4 is the better board, its got a small fan you mount on the fet sinks, its just the better board if you wana push your cpu.
the sabertooth(all 3 versions) have issues with the vrm section getting hot when overclocking aisuit will nag you like crazy about it....(google it, its very common, alot of people add multi fans on that section alone...)
