Itengrated memory controller, maybe, but integrated FSB? What the heck were you reading?
Hella go with a DFI LanParty NF4 SLI, they have some awesome boards and they come with a whole bunch of stuff aswell. They have even built memtest86 into the bios:drool:Esturk said:Hmm.. how about an Nforce4 Ultra board with Socket 939? My buddy got an ASUS A8N-E with an Athlon64 3000+ and it's a beautiful thing. PCI Express is nice, and also the way of the future.We could have gone with a board with AGP.. but that would be limiting him in the future.
Actually the A8N-E is not SLI ready. It has one PCI-Express x16 slot. It's also cheaper than the A8N-SLI and the A8N-SLI Deluxe. Also isn't Socket 754 going to be discontinued?Master Chief said:PCI Express is nice, but, no game really is written to use all the power of two GPUs currently. I know some games are SLI ready, but still. The only time you get the full power out of two 7800 GTX cards is if your using a tech demo. Currently, they are good for using high screen resolutions and higher filtering.
I just dont think its worth it yet. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do. I see some of the nForce 2 boards are going up in price. They still make a good system, though. I dunno I may just stick with what I have for now.
Well they're pretty new still.Master Chief said:You may be waiting a while for AMD Dual Cores to get cheaper oO. The latest one is 800$ on newegg.
AFAIK the Venice core is better than the Winchester cores (someone correct me if I'm wrong).Sampah said:what about the winchester?
