I dont have framerate issues on anything except crysis.
My cheapo mobo has done me real well. I dont see the need to buy an expensive one the next time i build a comp. But for some reason tf2 loves to crash lately, but could be just do to my decision to go commanda AKA i dont an anti-virus installed atm

Thats kind of wierd though... I find tf2 crashes moreso if I leave my antivirus software running. Then again, its fairly violent towards any remotely suspicious data. Your crashing may be due to the all-around increase of crashes and little bugs that valve seems to release with every patch.

im getting rdy to rebuild my main pc im adding a Q9770 cpu, thermaltake 1200w psu, dual geforce 9800 gx2's with 8gb of ddr3 ram oc'd to 2ghz....everything ive read says the asus 790i MB is extremely stable with the ddr3 ram oc'd to 2ghz, i'm putting it into the same case my amd system is in now and ripping the amd stuff out, the amd processor is a FX-70.

good god thats gonna be a beast!!!! I dont see the need for a Q9770 cou and a 1200 watt psu

since nothing can use all 4 cores yet, i would just get the basic q660 quadcore cpu from intel

and an 800 watt psu

evga's motherboards are put together better and have better features.

What thought are you trying to convey? do you agree with him or do you just think that it was cool enough to need to be repeated?

You can think real deeply about it if you want........
