Asus vs Nvidia Mobo..

[Drizzt]

it's $600 but you can find it for like $570 if your lucky.

Why not sli 2 9600 gt 512's One member (Otis) is showing some very impressive benchmarks for 3dmark06 with them. They are also alot cheaper then 2 8800 gts g92's.

Go with a 780i board if you decide to do this.

I am originally looking at 2 8800GTS graphics cards.. Nothing less in performance..

 

[Drizzt]

you're thinking of 9800gtx, and 3 9800gtx's cost $2000, plus Microcenter sells the 9800gx2 for $350

also I think a 9800gx2 performs like 2 8800gts g92

Your shitting me? no way they sell it for $350...

Not online at least

so?... the NVIDIA motherboard and what about the graphcis card?

Should I get the NVIDIA motherboard in the link and one 9800GX2?

The 9800GX2 is the same price as 2x 8800GTS cards.. roughly..

get the 9800gx2 its one card and when they release quad drivers that are half descent, and you got money for a secodn u can pick on of those up and own crysis and 3d marck 06 lol.

OK.. so I am going to get the NVIDIA motherboard in my link and get one 9800gx2 GPU and after a while get ANOTHER 9800gx2 and hook them together and Rock n' Roll..

Sound Good?

 

[Poizen22]

I guess everyone else doesn't seem to have any more comments? lol =S

They are probably all watching South Park...Wake up people..

 

[mgcook]

Yeah thats what I would do.

But if you don't plan to add a second card. I'd look into the Maximus Formula board.

 

[StealthTools]

I will probably add another GPU in the future..

Thanks for the interesting information

I can't wait until I build this thing...
