It is ok to get ms - 7514 p45 neo3-F and plug xfx gtx 280? anything will happen..i mean the compatibality of graphic card with the chipset..because p45 is for ati and cfx configuration..thank you ;-)

it will work as long as your PSU can support the GTX 280, if it can't power it then you may be saying goodbye to your PC.

Hehehe... my psu using odin gt 800W and memory kingston 1066Mhz hyper-x... i prefer not sli the gc...just want to use single slot... how about performance? is it slower or better, or similiar performance?

 

[Helloworld_98]

performance will be the same, and the PSU is overkill.

also you can't SLI with P45 boards.

if you haven't bought the '280 already then get a 4890 or 4870 X2, more bang for your buck.

What do u mean by PSU overkill? power is not sufficient?

 

[adzim86]

and how about this product
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=2921&ProductName=GA-EP45-UD3R

 

[Helloworld_98]

the PSU is overkill as in you could use a 550w version by the same company and it would still work.

and what about that product?

 

[adzim86]

my 2nd choice is gigabye GA-EP45-UD3R ( http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=2921&ProductName=GA-EP45-UD3R )
is it ok? or other recomandation, i'm really apprieciate

 

[Helloworld_98]

it's a good board, anything by Gigabyte is usually a good board.

 

[adzim86]

ooo..realy? thank you... there is any problems to the graphic card if the psu rate is high? i mean the card is overheat/physical damage or more stability?

 

[Helloworld_98]

no, it's just that efficiency will be lower on a higher wattage PSU, but only by a couple of percent.

 

[adzim86]

Oo...i see.. i think i get gigabyte... thank mate

 

[Helloworld_98]

what cpu are you getting with it also?

 

[adzim86]

cpu intel q6660... mayb want to upgrade to q9xxx.. is it good?

 

[Helloworld_98]

the Q6600 is old tech, I didn't even know you could get them anymore.

get a phenom II 940 and a 790GX motherboard, it will be quicker and cost about the same.
