Kwaad said: I have always been a fan of Nvidia, however I would up 25-50$ and get a GTS instead of a GT, as the GTS is 50% faster than the GT.

Stop posting FUD. That is nowhere near the truth. A 8800GTS is at best 15% faster than a GT in a few games, but on average less than 10% faster.

You're also making dangerous statements like "your CPU is too slow", "go all out on the memory" and "Dont go cheap on your memory".

Memory is cheap today, the only thing that matters is that you get enough of it. Higher performance RAM is only meant for over-clockers.

 


I would say that the main reason to get one now is because it has a superior dual slot cooling arangement, and it can overclock a little better if you're that way inclined.

I would wonder, how can we find the truth to the last statement, don't buy a cheap motherboard. What is cheap and what is just feature poor?


Son, you speak in riddles. But I guess you are refering to something Kwaad said about motherboards?


Sorry, I think I left a line out. Theres the myth about cheap/expesive ram, theres the myth about CPU power but the real question is what are you paying for when you get a cheap motherboard? Is it that much worse or better or indifferent. Does anyone know HOW a $100motherboard is better than a $50 and not just in features?



Tease.
