ASUS P6X58D-E LGA 1366 X58 ATX Intel Motherboard P6X58D-E - Micro Center I was just looking on the internet and found this. I read its pretty good

 

 

i actually got that motherboard. no problems and supposed to have good cooling, though dont really notice. also has usb 3.0 ports so thats a plus with future tech. then again i bought this motherboard like 1-2 years ago and havnt been keeping up with computer tech that much since then also its still listed as the same price at amazon like 2 yrs later. You got a price range / how good of a computer you want?

 

also have the i7 920 cpu which is like the most common affordable good cpu

Yes,, defiantly go for an i5.. You don't need a i7 for gaming.. save yourself some money. Like sebak said.. that i5 (Amazon.com: Intel Core i5-3570K Quad-Core Processor 3.4 GHz 4 Core LGA 1155 - BX80637I53570K: Computers & Accessories)

 

is a great processor.. my friend has it too

I would also recomment the 3570K i5, but go for a PCI 3.0 motherboard.

I use a 850W PSU atm and it handles everything fine. Anything over 700W will be fine tbh. I would recomment XFX Pro-Series. They are good. Expensive (Mine was £100) but good. I don't even remember doing that post lmao! I think I was pissed at the time...
