HHi,
I'm planing to build a Hack Pro, I want to build a strong system for graphics and video editing, for a few years of use.
Right now I'm selling my MacPro 1,1 (2006) which served me good, and decided to go the Hack way.
So I'm trying to decide between 2 options:
Socket 1366 option
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R
Intel® Core™ i7 990X 3.46GHz 12MB 1333MHz
and then Triple Channel Ram (about 24Gb, 6x4Gb DDRIII 1600)
Or
Socket 1155 option
Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3-B3
Intel 2600k i7 3.4Ghz 8MB
and then memory will be Dual Channel, I can only find 16Gb RAM
My main concern is Dual VS Triple channel memory, although I've read socket 1155 gives better performance.
Other specs will be OCZ Vertex 3 256GB, some more SATAII HDD, DVD burner...
And for graphics, I want the nVidia GTX 580, are there good drivers?
What about bluetooth? any compatible adapter who support sleep also?
I'll be happy to get any suggestions.
Thanks
