I'm looking at a high end gaming rig and got a few questions.
1. What is the difference between the P8Z68-V GEN3 and P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3?
2. If I use the SSD caching ability on the above M/B does that mean the SSD drive it not available for general use as a drive? I presume a 60gb one would be fine as a cache as it is dynamic based on file usage?
3. Build will be based on an intel I7. There is an option to overclock to 4.7ghz. Does it matter then which I7 is picked? Also will that require water cooling?
4. What sort of testing is done on the overclocking and how much is it likely to shorten the life of the CPU by?
5. I would go for 2x1536MB EVGA GTX 580 SC (unless you have the 3gb version of the GTX 580 coming). Will 850W be enough for that?
6. I'm thinking of either 3x23" or 1x27" 3d monitor. If I go for 3 do I have to buy the ones that come with the kit and the glasses? Do I need 3 kits for 3 monitors? I definitely won't need 3 sets of glasses. What are my options? If I do go for 3 I don't seem to be able to pick that many in the customize build.
7. Does the lightboost only come in 27" monitors or are there plans for 23" versions at some point?
Plus and other advice you have. Much appreciated.
