Sapphire 5850

Caviar Blue 500GB HDD

(I already own the 5850, EW 500W and Caviar Blue)


NOW START YELLING AT ME AND TELLING ME WHAT I SHOULD CHANGE


I have a $620 budget for the Case/Mobo/RAM/CPU/Heatsink

You sure you need a motherboard with onboard graphics? 890fx should be out soon.

Fixed, and i'd actually prefer GX, as I don't feel like waiting until April. If I wanna upgrade my birthday is the same day as FX's and thubans official release date (April 26th)

Why would you want a board with onboard graphics if you already have a great video card? I realize that it can be disabled in the BIOS, but I would really rather not even physically have it there...

It all looks great, the RAM will work well with AMD and it's on the QVL for this board here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131631 - Just put up on the egg.

I want 890GX in case my card goes poop. I don't care weather I have x8/x8 or x16/x16 because most cards don't saturate x8/x8 and if they do, you get a 5% loss at most and i've only Crossfired once and preferred single card over dual cards


Not interested in the ASUS board. I don't get whats w/ the height of the 8-pin CPU power socket and I am waiting for a 890GX board w/ power on-board.

Not to mention a switch card..seriously.
