Ya I'm still on the fence about which board to pick, so I am asking the users here of these boards to state their overall rating on Overclocking, Features, what worked well and what didn't work so well and their full configs on these system boards.
The Boards are the MSI 790FX-GD70 and the Gigabyte GA-MA 790FXT-UD5P
I am thinking of dropping in a AMD PhII 965BE, HT Omega Sound card, Geil/Teamgroup/Kingston PC 1600 DDR3 (8GB). 4890 (XFX, Sapphire, Visiontek, Powercolor, HIS) or 5870. Full tower case (unsure) Enermax or Antec Powersupply, Harddrives (SSDs are going to take a bit before I buy) Cpu cooler. Also recommend me a CPU cooler and Full tower case for said above setup.
(PS Ive seen the physical boards myself at Fry's and I'm liking the MSI for its feature set (4x Full PCI-E 16x slots (2 x16 and 2 x8). If anyone has an objection to my CPU selection please tell me why and an alternative. Just remember this is an AMD machine and not an Intel so please don't state anything Intel related
