    Need to choose motherboard and RAM for phenom II x6 1090T

    I was thinking of building a new computer that supports software’s such as 3dsmax, autocad, photoshop, many applications, and games and so on. I thought the choice of CPU: Phenom II X6 1090T. Also I have to choose a motherboard for it. I would also add a graphics card. I also wish for 6Gb SATA and USB 3.0. I would also add 8gb 2x4gb DDR3-1333 RAM please advise ram good for him and works with the chosen motherboard and CPU. I considered GIGABYTE GA-870A 770-EXTREME ASRock UD3 and 3, but found no suitable rams, but companies are so lazy with their ram plate checks, which are killing me, and I'm afraid. Also I don’t want to but intel so is there any suggestions for it.

    Have you observed at the ASUS Crosshair Formula IV or ASRock 890FX Deluxe 3? From memory, I suggest you to go with DDR3-1600 memory with CL7 latencies. The sections that say they were intended for the Intel platform works well on AMD chipsets. It is firmly a marketing strategy, but look at Patriot Viper II, Mushkin, and G. Ripjaws set of skills and flare. I hope any of these will be suitable for your system.

    My plan is to use my GTX 470 in the crosshairs of Formula IV for some time. At least I will have the option of crossfire in the way if I decided to go ATI. Most decent boards today have at least two PCI-E slots for graphics cards. I will be receiving my sights IV in a few days and I'm undecided which memory to go with. Therefore, I have the intention to buy 2x2GB sticks in the next two weeks. I'm leaning towards the Patriot Viper II or Mushkin DDR3-1600 (CL7). There is a new series low C7 Patriot time’s player specifically designed for AMD boards. Read some very good reviews in the Patriot player modules, which seem to overclock like crazy.

    AMD Phenom II X6 1090T and a motherboard like mother Pro/usb3 Asus only supports dual channel and the user guide says that CITA because of the specification of the CPU. With a design of ASUS, this motherboard can hold up to 1333. When overclocking, some sculpt of AMD CPU is not compatible with DDR3 1600 or more often, 4 x DIMM, 16GB max, DDR3 1866 (OC) / 1333 / 1066. Now this makes me think that in order to put in memory 1333 than you have to overclock . Is that true? And I have no idea how to overclock if so. I would like to at least 8 GB of 1600MHz for my intense video editing on the fly. Someone said I have to adjust the memory multiplier and voltage. Is it a simple process and there is a tutorial for that. I'm so happy that you cleared the marketing strategy to be specific about ram chip actually a few options open to me because I was looking for Dual Channel 4 GB is left with a latency of 7 or 8 in the list of QV and not just aren 't any. The two till now is G. SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL7D-8GBXH. It is1.6v and has a CAS latency of 7, but is very expensive.

    Well I think you must try Viper Xtreme with 8 GB DDR3 memory having 240-pin and the desktop memory model would be PX538G1600LLK. This basically has 1.65v and consists of Cas latency of aroung 8. Well I don’t have any idea how to setup BIOS to make these sticks run but you can take help from anyone who knows about this very well. Thus I assume that you won’t have any trouble with any of these.
