So I just got XFX 790i Ultra board and after installilng everything worked great. Except 1 thing is that eerytime I turned on my computer, the BIOS boot the hard drive like normal, then it said FLoppy disk failed (because I dont use a floppy disk drive and I didnt install it). So everytime I have to press F1 to continue booting up window. Anyone is experiencing this? Is there a way to bypass that so it doesn't check the Floppy disk drive anymore? I checked the BIOS but couuldn't see anythign to change it or I couldn't figure it out.

There is a place either in the IDE Devices Page, or Boot Page Of the BIOS that will allow you to disable the Floppy..

Good Luck !

On another note, what do you guys think of the XFX 790i Ultra board? I mean for $350+ it has to worth something right? Are there any better boards out there for SLI?

if you're running ddr3, a qx9770, and going with at least tri-sli, then yeah it prolly worth the $349, if not the 780i is more worth it IMHO

So running at stock speed this board works fine. But after I overclocked it a little I got a File corrupted error after downloading something frm the net. And I heard a lot of ppl got this error for the 790 boards. I have a Q9450 cpu was trying to overclocked to 3.0ghz.
