well i ordered the stuff, i went with the eVGA 6600GT, as it saves me money and i dont need anything faster nor do i need VIVO, hell the comp game i play most often is Diablo 2 and my Current TI4600 plays CSS just fine at 1024x768

and again i will say you couldent pay me to use a epox motherboard

My advice?

Drop the 3200+ for a 3000+ Venice and save yourself $45-odd. The 3000+ is a no-brainer to hit 3200+ speeds with ease.

Drop that DFI board and go with the EPoX. Cheaper and (more importantly, perhaps?) unless you are well-versed in BIOS configuration you will have a fun time setting it up.

I will agree that nVidia's dual-monitor is superior to ATi; I never cared for ATi's HydraVision crap either. Or their MMC software but that's an entirely different story...:p

And you couldn't pay me to use MSI. Or DFI. Does that mean either brand is crap?

EPoX has long made some of the best overclocking boards on the market for considerably less than the others. Anand's recent review of the EPoX NF4 board was glowing. Suit yourself, I suppose.

It's a great board. OCs almost as good as the much more expensive DFI too. Mine is rock stable.

well the point is moot now but i woulda gone with the 3000, overclocks just the same as the 3200 and is cheaper.
