Help With AMD Change Up.

[joelthezombie15]

So I am building a extreme Build and i was planning on IvyBridge-E but the boards and CPU's Are a bit more expensive than i feel is needed, so i need help finding a balanced build that is AMD based.

 

Heres the "rules" everything in this link stays the same other than the CPU and Motherboard. I want this to be a extreme pc and i have chosen the parts accordingly. 

 

CPU Requirements:

 

8 Core

Has good looking water blocks (im doing a custom loop)

Thats about it.

 

​MB Requirements:

 

ATX or Larger.

Good brand

Either all black or all black and no bright colors, or black and red

SLI support.

Good NIC

Some way to do SSD cache (if thats even doable on AMD)

minimum of 3 usb 3.0

Sata 3 and sata 2

 

Cant think of anything else.

 

heres the intel build, remember only change what HAS to be changed http://pcpartpicker.com/user/joelthezombie15/saved/1w7E

 

I cant think of anything else to say. you can just leave a newegg link in the comments, no need to fiddle with pcpartpicker. :) thanks hopefully its doable and will save me heaps of money

There isn't much more to change to be honest. I would personally get 7970's in crossfire but that is just preference I guess.
