looks like a really badass system personally i dont see why anyone would pay for the X6800 but if you have the money go for it.

also why not go for on of the new Nforce680 chipset boards?

 

[TheEnd187]

YEAH IF YOU GOT THE MONEY WHICH IT LOOKS LIKE YOU DO GET THE QUAD CORE, AND I AM ALSO THINKING OF GETTING A NEW RIG, MIGHT I SUGGEST A BFG NFORCE680I. I THINK ILL GET THAT ONE FIRST THEN QUAD CORE THEN A BFG psu BUT THAT IS A SICK [snipped] BUILD. i WOULD ALSO SUGGEST A FATAL1TY OR EXTREME GAMER FOR YOU

Don't bypass the profanity filter. And, for crying out loud, turn off CAPS LOCK. ~Elbatrop1

That ^^ is a monster computer

Why did you choose BFG for 8800GTX ??

You can get eVGA 8800GTX at a cheaper price

or for even a cheaper price you can get PNY 8800GTX or XFX 8800GTX

IF YOU PALN ON GETTING 8800 I WOULD SUGGEST THE bfg 8800gtx WATER COOLED EDITION IT WILL FREE UP SOME SPACE IN YOUR CASE AND IT'LL BE MORE RELIABLE

 

[Ronnie]

i always recommend eVga because of their great stepup program and with my experience with them in the past that dont give you a bunch of bs when you have problems they are not afriad to admit they ****ed up on something.

the only 680 chipset boards that ive seen out are the ones form asus and eVga. ive actually never seen a bfg motherboard

 

[Lord AnthraX]

Ew PNY? No.


BFG is alright, but I'd rather have an eVGA or an XFX.


eVGA > XFX, both great, just eVGA customer support is really nice.



Nice build.

 

[TheEnd187]

here it is http://www.bfgtech.com/nForce680i_motherboard.html

It actually would work better with g80 according to bfg and nvidia

 

[Ronnie]

i think the g80 will work great in any board to be honest.

ive never liked bfg for some reason one of my classmates is a huge bfg fan even though he has had to RMA his 7900gtx twice

 

[chris0201987]

Yea Im gonna get the eVGA 8800GTX I just picked anyone just to copy link sorry bout that lol.

As far as the cpu I might get the E6700 instead. But im gonna wait till dec/jan to see if X6800 drops alittle in price.
