Skip the Asus motherboard! I can't say I'm too satisfied with the M2N series from them...

Well, its about to arrive now :o ... Anyway I have been hearing good feedbacks of the P5W-DH :yahoo: .


thanks;

I would be very very happy to send you another Asus MB for only 40 $, sending included... :)

I'll just get myself an MSI nForce 5 board then

Hey vrosa!! Very cool man! You will like the Core 2 Duo, I sure love mine!! Intel did a great job for once!! Why didn't you go with the 680i board? Also, for that much money why didn't you spend a little more for the Corsair Dominator memory and the extra OC potential?

The look like they should be out in a few months. That is what I am waiting for as well!! Crysis is my main reason for doing that!!!




Considering my overclocking intentions the Crossair Dominator Kit will help a lot. I was going for XMS2 mainly because of price difference, but you're right... spend a bit more for better stuff wont hurt me...



I will have to get a 7600 card until i can buy a cheaper dx10 card ... just cant wait until they come out :o . The bad thing is that my other systems motherboards dont have PCI-ex, so i wont be able to move the 7600 to any of them when i get a DX10 card :) ... The x-bay maybe !



thanks,

Thats what i could afford:



P5W-DH Deluxe Wireless Edition

Conroe Core 2 Duo E6300

2 GB Corssair XMS2 Dual-Channel Kit (1 + 1 GB)
