@tenida, config is very good, just go for the tx750. And if you are sure, you will never need more than 2 HDDs, then go for 912 adv, else stick with 690 II adv.

@d3p5kor, getting a Lian-Li won't be very easy in Kolkata.

And performance difference is not worthy of the price difference. Basically SATA 3 is more important for SSDs. For HDDs, SATA II is sufficient.

I agree, but you know tenida is going for MSI just because of Rashi kolkata, not because of MSI, the asus Vpro with its bluetooth, 16 power phases and epic BIOS is the highest sold z68 board all over, same as P67 series from asus, but damn rashi, once you go to rashi kolkata you will never want to go back, the mobo is the only asus product I am using atm, if god forbid rashi screws with me in future, I will never buy asus, too unpredictable(not in chennai or other parts though, just kol).

But, fingers crossed, the board is rocking atm.

^^ To be on the safe side, i would go for a tx 750-v2 rather 650-v2 for a gtx 560-ti multigpu config. They give better headroom as 560 is power hungry.

So if user wants to add another 560 hawk, 750w will prove advantageous here.

The mobo's price is tempting. The icing on the cake is that it also supports virtu.
Excellent suggestion topgear.:thumbs:
