I am getting a motherboard soon and I'm picking from the two right now. I'm leaning towards the EVO but I'm not sure. The CPU I'm getting is the FX-6300, the GPU I'm getting is the Sapphire AMD Radeon 7950, and the PSU is the TX750. I will be using up a lot of sata ports too.

The only reason I have a TX750 is because it was on sale for $60, and if I decide to upgrade I won't need a new PSU. And the back ports don't seem as nice as the EVO, and which one is more known? Which is more popular with builders.

Lol, so it is worth the $10 more? I don't like that they have two PS/2 ports on the back instead of just one. The EVO has 2 eSATA ports on the back because they were smart and did one PS/2 that works with both. But the SATA is worth it.

So I think I'll go with the PRO, and if I get the Hyper 212 EVO and if I was to get high profile RAM would it fit?
