I would like to get my build done before christmas but the ivy bridge and the new chipsets just keep looming overhead, I cant decide wether I shouold wait or not.
my question, this board has USB and PCI 3.0 support but its not native.
1: is native support for these features that much better or something?
2: without native USB and PCI 3.0 and with a bios flash to make this ivy bridge ready, whats the difference between this guy and the upcoming z77? I mean are there any other features to the z77?
Newegg.com - GIGABYTE G1.SNIPER2 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
if I went with this now would I be good to go?
thanks!
