Does the Asus p9x79 with its SSD chaching help with running 2 120g SSDs in raid?

I will be using this PC for heavy gaming, live streaming, frapsing, video editing and internet.

Ive been looking through memory a lot lately... There is just so much out there I don't have a clue what is very dependable low timing performance memory anymore.. At first I wanted to find the best possible corsair memory for a x79 but there is so much I can't decide what one to go with.. They...

Are there any focus group or full x79 build review threads or workups I can read about all the latest hardware that goes into building one of these systems?

Hi everyone! My name is Dave and I am upgrading to an EVGA x79 setup. I feel I'm pretty knowledgeable when it comes to building PCs. Although my last build was a 775 socket so I feel a bit out of my realm with SSDs, pci-e 3.0, usb 3.0, ddr3 and all the new bios they have out there now. So I'm...

I really dont know, I cant find enough info or comparison guides to know if its worth it to get a x58/core i7 vs say a 790i ultra/Q9650. Would the x58/core i7 give a noticable performance boost in GAMING vs the 790i ultra/Q9650? Or is the core i7 not really made for gaming? Or in another...

How does it work for you? I am going to install it here soon just taking my time with it. I want to clean out my case and all components before I do it =)

Yeah heh, sorry for the misconception. "First time water build". I've been building my own computers for about 9 years now, and overclocking them for 8 1/2 =) I just noticed, I dont think I have any fittings for the north bridge block =( Unless they come with it.

Quac over at Petras Tech Shop helped me put this together this water cooling build for my evga 750i FTW/e8500/sli evga GTX 285 build. This is my jump over to liquid cooling so I did as much research as I could before this purchase. So I hope I did well, let me know. 1x Petra'sTech...

Quick question, can this PSU power GTX 280 SLI? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703009

I didnt just crank it. I slowly increased in small interval's and never actually got to those clocks, because of intense artifacting... I just didnt feel like typing all that :p

Yeah I still just dont know what to do...

So here is whats going on. I bought a GTX 280 from newegg about 4-5 months ago. I tried to overclock it to what everyone else was having success with, which was 700/1500/1400. I can say it was not even close to stable, it got really intense artifacting and would heat up to 105c in a matter of...

well I was about to buy that kit, but I cant add it to the cart so I guess its out of stock, I guess my only other option is the Apex Ultima
