First of all, let me explain that this is my first build. I'm fairly new to all of this and very much looking forward to getting started. I'm going to be building a budget system for gaming and whatnot. After reading and comparing motherboards for about 3 days now, I've finally come to the conclusion that I think I'm going to go with a BIOSTAR T-series board. I was just curious if you guys could help me pick one of the three based on performance, quality, and bang for the buck. I'm looking to spend about 500-600 dollars in total. Here's the three boards.
Newegg.com - BIOSTAR TA770 A2+ AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards
Newegg.com - BIOSTAR TFORCE TA780G M2+ AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards
Newegg.com - BIOSTAR TFORCE TA790GX A2+ AM2+/AM2 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards
I've heard sub par things about the 780g chipset and how its now really worth it, and I don't really know anything about 790. Any insight into either BIOSTAR in general or anything really would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Also just thought I would include this. I'm planning on getting a NVidia 9800 card, 2X2gigs of gskill 800 ram, and a X2 6000+ CPU at 3.0 GHz. Also I'm going to be running 64 bit vista ultimate.
