Hey guys,


I have a Gateway FX i7 2.66 920 Naheam PC with 12 gb DDR 3 and a ATI 4890 HD 1gb ddr5 video card.....



what i was planning to do is buy better motherboad for my PC cuz I think gatewate stock mother boards are trash....


so I was thinking of getting a new motherboard and transfering my exisiting processor, and ram and gettting a ssd drive to be my primary drive and keep my 750 gb drive as my storage drive.....


So my question for you guys ... which drive should I go with? it will be a LGA 1366 board for a intel i7....

suggestions?....
do you think its a good move?... bad move?.....
im looking to over clock my i7 and ram....

If you are NOT looking for the extreme overclocking on you i7-920, I prefer using the MSI X58 Pro-E.
