Identical, for the most part.
I'm going to stop side-barring on theeldests thread and start my own thread for a couple of questions he doesn't have.
I'm an Nvidia guy, so I'm looking at the 580 range of cards, and I'm also trying to decide between the Sabertooth and the Crosshair V.
I love the EVGA's for the lifetime warranty, altho, to prop ASUS, I came home last night to a video display on BIOS with white dots all over it , and my 2 year, 11 month old 9800GT is in the mail today, RMA'd for repair (can we hope for replacement? ). So, they'll definitely get my MB money, while EVGA's got my vid card.
Obviously with those Motherboard choices, I'm aiming at the 'Dozer, not sure which series yet. Any thoughts on one board over the other, or anyone have a specific 580 that they're partial to? Or can I knock $50 off the vid card, and only 5% performance loss with a different card?
Thanks!

Still waiting on Bulldozer, so not a lot to update for a month or so, unless I catch a steal on Hard drives, or the motherboard.
