Which motherboard to pick, and what ram to choose.
10 minutes ago, Rihan545 said:Hello, I am going to build a PC and have a i7 prossesor (4790), a 1x32 gig ram stick, and a 980 ti or 1070. Will a X99 gaming 7 motherboard work fine with these components? I was also told that there is a limit to how many gigs of ram I can put put on my motherboard, is this true?
It seems like you have some kind of a blown-out-of-proportion "I want the absolute best!" idea about things. What do you intend to do with this build?
As @Chaos_Sorcerer mentioned, X99 is a different socket and therefore incompatible with the 4790 or the 4790k. To use the 4790, you'll need a socket 1150 motherboard. Why do you want 1X32GB of RAM? If you were going to go with an i7-4790 or 4790k, then 32GB is the maximum amount of RAM the processor can address anyway, and you'd be better off going with 4 X 8GB sticks.
980ti / 1070 should be doable.
