Anyone using a Jetway HA04 or other 790fx/600sb?

[v3rax]

I am going to be building my very first AMD system is over 6 years next week. I ordered the JetWay HA04-Extreme motherbaord and Phenom 9600 BE from Newegg.

Does anyone have this motherboard that might be able to give me some tips or advice about things with it?

I plan to run 2 HD 4850's in xfire and 2 Raptors in RAID 0.

Since it has been quite some timne since I built an AMD system, could someone point me to any guides that might help me with this build?

Thanks

If you still have time to cancel the order I'd get one the the new 790GX/SB750 boards which are miles ahead of 790FX/SB600 boards in a few key areas. Notably overclocking, USB/Sata ports, better Bios options (all boards should contain NB multi) and probably lower power consumption not to mention the onboard video should you need it (e.g. Surroundview).

If you have already bought it, then best look here and on XS- plenty of info.
