Hi all.
Need a new motherboard but not sure what would be best.
Im thinking of either an evga 790i ultra or xfx 790i ultra.
Basics has to be 775 socket
able to take 8 gig of ddr3
take 2 xfx gts 250 gfx cards in sli
Over clocking is a must for me.
Any help on what would be good would be great before i pull my hair out. |

I have an excellent cpu and ddr3 memory so thats not a problem and the price of the gfx cards doesnt really bother me.
I try to keep away from asus (hate the bios) and amd as i like the intel cpu's better. Saying that only ever had one amd processor and that was in 478 socket.
I might not be useing the blackops anyway as xfx are giveing me an 790i ultra board in return for the 750i as this is the second with the same bios fault in 3 months. |
