Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone of you can help me with my computer upgrade.
I will be using this computer for Protein Folding (Folding@Home), Games and Homework

The budget I'm trying to aim is max of $300-400
The price I got was around $500-600

The things I need is:
RAM: 24GB (6 x 4GB) DDR3 1333 or 1600
It will be going into this motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6813128472

CPU Cooler: Like Corsair H80 Liquid Cooling, Cooler Master Hyper 212 ETC
Nothing too bulky. Need something good to cool my 980x since it gets extremely hot at 130 watts. Temperatures for me are usually near 80*C which is not in the recommended max temperature by Intel

OS: Window 7 Professional

SSD: Single 60-120gb SSD SATA II or if possible SATA III
Read Write above 250gb
Write Speed above 200mb

Thanks
