At least, the Z77 series motherboards and the "k" unlocked processors are well recepted.

If you got a new motherboard/CPU (and upgraded to DDR3) you'd be set and only have to buy 3 things. I've played Planetside 2 with the 8800 GTX on a system comparable to yours and it still holds up. Like Danny mentioned, your CPU is kind of your weakest link. in my opinion if you are...

I think it's because they don't have the super glossy finish any more. I haven't found anything covered in flux, but they're always covered in finger prints.

Made a new build in July, it worked for about a month. My system started hanging while booting or shortly after, and it would take several restarts to successfully boot up. After about a month, I reseated everything, and did a clean boot of my operating system (win 7 64 bit). The fresh...
