I have the BFG and it works good. Upgrade your bios though, I had issues with my Corsair dominator memory being recognized as a 1T and its really 2T command rate... new bios fixed that though. Other than that its rock stable and no issues, was getting ready to overclock it. More to come about that.

Both of them are based on the Nvidia reference board, and knowing the companies the only important BIOS revisions will come Nvidia. Pick the cheapest and pocket a few bucks.

EVGA, i have the EVGA one and love it, you get EAR(speedy replacement) and lifetime warranty with 24/7 support.

All 680I have that problem i as of yet to hear what the problem is....

I've read on HardOCP.com that the Nvidia reference boards, including the EVGA, have real problems. Apparently SATA HDDs get corrupted. A Nvidia rep who was interviewed by the site acknowledges the problem and they have released a beta BIOs with a final one coming soon. However, users who have already experienced corruption will still have to reinstall their OS. According to the Nvidia rep, this problem doesn't affect the Asus n680i boards.
