howarchaic Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I'm building a new system and am wondering which has better support at the moment? I've also been looking at motherboards and the 770 and 790x are looking pretty nice. What is the current status on sb600 support on the AMD dvds these days? And 3870 vs 8800gt, any opinions here?

howarchaic Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 The board is still sb600, and I know that is fairly well supported. And if I can't get it out of the box, I may just have to wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
