    I like to be different I am running an MSI motherboard with an AMD quad core and Nvidia graphics but It looks like i am gonna have this MB for a while cause it looks like no one is making that combo anymore :(

    Next on my list of Upgrades is a new 6Core AMD and the GTX460s, which from all that i have seen in SLI outperform the 480s and are right on par with a single 580 :naughty:

    I hear the new 6 core AMD's are nice.

    we have used the AMD phenom II quad's in some of our client cad machines. they work good for the buck

    Yeah EVGA has a Factory overclock with a Lifetime warranty for not much more than the Vanilla model

    the AMD 6core are great for the price better than Intel 1K price tag for theres :eek:
    I have had my AMD black edition quad core OC'd to 3.6 from 3.2 for about 8months now and its still running strong

    the gtx 580 is way too much money for me. $1100.00 for a pair

    ya its pretty crazy how much they cost and there are quite a few people running two or three
    I will take two 460s over one 480/580 that will outperform or match them in most cases for less $
