Not overclocking: ASUS A8N-SLI Premium+3800X2

Overclocking: DFI Lanparty SLI-DR+Opteron 165

Also, if you wanna spend the least amount you can wait a month for massive price drops. But since your parents are paying, fire away!

Wait a month and attack it at its weak price for MASSIVE DAMAGE!

 

Edit: Sorry, nothing useful to contribute.

You should be more like Cantrip.

so instead of starting a new thread and having it locked i decided to bring this one back.  I'm looking at a new mobo/video combo because as it is my computer is destroying my gaming life.  I was looking at this motherboard and possibly a 76/7800 nvidia.  any suggestions?

edit: would this card work with the motherboard?

The MSI board seems a little on the expensive side and the ASUS doesn't provide a lifetime warranty.

Heres a good card: http://www.monarchcomput...&Product_Code=190383

Heres a good mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Pr...asp?Item=N82E16813131517

I've got the same mobo, and it brought my Opteron 146 from 2ghz to 2.8ghz no problem. Lots of overclocking options and really good stability.
