Most Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I already have the card from my previous build, and I already got it working so yeah...Would you recomend, evga or gigabyte? I heard Evga has sound issues when installing osx89. A lot of people are saying gigabyte, but personally if evga does work I would suggest getting a evga. Word on the street is there the best mobo's around. I'm still not sure which mobo i should go with either...Asus,Gigabyte or Evga.

Mastachief Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 You wouldn't want anything less than the quality of that evga board would you? They have resolved the sound issues the board is having, other than that its fine, so go get the board and start your journey welcome to us.
