Hello! When are the next Intel chips supposed to be coming out? Would it be worth waiting for either the Ivy Bridge-E or the new 'Haswell'? Also, do any of you think that the Haswell will be a significant performance boost from the i3/5/7?
Second Question regarding RAM speed.
I'll be building a gaming PC in the next couple weeks. What is the advantage of having faster RAM? I consistently see people having DDR3-1600 RAM But I also see that you can purchase up to DDR3-2133 to put in builds. Is it worth the extra price that you will pay for the higher speeds? Also, I keep hearing about dual and quad channel RAM. What is better? How can you tell when shopping for motherboards and processors which is supported and which should be used? I just want to make sure I am doing my build right and that I am optimizing everything as much as I can.
