WHY ASUS AND NOT DFI!

 

[Hefemeister]

mostly due to past experiences. I have always had good luck with ASUS and the board gave me eveything I needed.

 

[PZEROFGH]

ok its your powerstation

 

[Hefemeister]

ps built a couple with dfi lan parties and did not like how close the pci express slots were for sli. Want to keep em cool when the second one comes hopefully within a year.

 

[PZEROFGH]

wait so isnt that a bad thing sense they are so close to each other.????

 

[Hefemeister]

yep could barely fit 2 cards in with the dfi. also had some issues with the ram dimms. but once you get em running the boards run great.
