This might very well be a dumb question, but I'm planning on building my first system and wondered if when buying components whether there are less problems/issues if you buy the same brand of motherboard and videocard. I pretty much know what I want but wondered if when choosing between two GeForce 6800 GT cards for example, would I have less problems if I chose the same brand of video card as the motherboard (probably MSI). Thanks
