If you don't OC like crazy and keep your board cool, 4 phase is OK. MSI is having some problems with G65/GD70 and thuban.

Only 8 phase mobos I know
Gigabyte GA-890FXA-UD5/7 @ 11k
ASUS Crosshair @ 16k

So many people (even if you just count on TDF) are using mid end mobos with X4 9xx and x6.


*This is what i got from googling.

Sorcerer is right. Thubans are 125 watt cpus and need 8 + 1 phase motherboard. Tdp is also high compared to its competitors.

Jas the asus board is good and can be recommended with any x6. Change it in buying guide.

Going naughty, are we? . Just to clear your misunderstandings again:
Look at the Gigabyte P55M-UD2's EPS connectors and then the burnt phase on that thread you quoted (that my dear friend, is an amd system)+ remember the previous quote by chew. They are completely different (You need to stop generalizing as well)

If you read the link careful that was correctly put up by Ishu, the 4 pin atx are used by companies in such boards so that it can overvolt supposedly to compensate for the vdroop. Even by keeping this at stock but on 60-80% (or 100%) load, the board's lifespan reduces dramatically so maybe one can expect a mobo failure within the matter of months/year. Time of failure depends on factors like proper power supply, quality of the components used, etc. Don't be suprised if the low end boards goes through vague tests of quality control.

Even guys at Anandtech do agree (I didn't read that article honestly, credits to Ishu for pointing it out clearly) so there ya go, their research and analysis is far more credible and proven than me .

NITIN BHUWANIA, one bad news for you. The price of i7 950 is 13.3K and the price of i7 930 is 12.4K. I called Vedant today and asked for the price. They actually mistakenly commented about the price of 950 thinking it as 930 on that day.

[ithehappy]

Hyper 212+ is 2.1k I think and I would suggest you Dell 24'' LED Backlit monitor at 12.5k appx.

 

[NITIN BHUWANIA]

hey the price of asus sabertooth x58 is 11350 including taxes here .....
check it out...
@ithehappy i think vadant didnt inform you of the latest price drop..

 

[Ishu Gupta]

Dude P2350 is a great monitor. My recommendation.
Otherwise Dell S2409 @ 13.8 or Dell G2410 @ 13k.

And i7 870 slightly better than i7 950, in everything except memory intensive tasks. But if you OC i7 950 wins.

And I would stick with VX550W. No need of TX650W.

 

[NITIN BHUWANIA]

i was thinking of future proof rig so thought of taking tx 650...coz there would be heavy load on it...
my complete rig would be as follows(uptill now):-

core i7-950@13.3k
asus sabertooth x58@11.35k
Dell S2409 @ 13.8
Corsair XMS3 1600Mhz 6GB kit 4.8k
Corsair TX650W PSU- 6.7k
Cooler Master 690II Plus Transparent- 5.9k
HD6870 - 14k
APC 1.1KVA - 4.5k
Hyper 212+ - 1.8k
logitech wireless keyboard and mouse combo-1.2k
cm thermal compound-.5k

total-77.85k...

can you guys recommend something so as to cut down the total cost atleast to 70k??

help please need to buy rig on monday anyhow..

 

[Ishu Gupta]

CM thermal compund will come with CM Hyper 212+.

Your options for cutting.
1) VX550W for TX650W. No need for TX650W unless you are going CF.
2) i5 760 for i7 950. Don't choose this though.
3) 22" Monitor

 

[NITIN BHUWANIA]

CF????

maybe will buy the 22 inch monitor for cost cutting...

 

[Ishu Gupta]

CF - Cross Fire. Running two or more (ATI) graphic cards.

[vickybat]

+1 for the above config.

 

[ithehappy]

@Nitin, I think you don't need the UPS if you have some inverter, so that will decrease the total amount, I might be wrong though.
