I was thinking something like this would be good. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130673
Do the prices of these ever go down before being discontinued?
The only thing that bothers me about those is that they have an additional PCI 16 slot that I don't really need. Do the micro and mini ITX present a lot of problems with big video cards?
I'm looking for a MB I can use the new 22nm i5 with. I don't plan to use more than one discrete graphics card. I'd like to overclock the i5 in the future. So far I can only find micro ATX motherboards in the $50-60 price range. Is this the norm?
It looks like many games are finally starting to use 4 cores in gaming, such as Battlefield. So is getting a 6 core CPU a good way to future-proof a PC?
