From anandtech about the motherboard
" This one-chip solution offers native Firewall capability, 4-drive SATA/IDE RAID, and native GbE (Gigabit Ethernet). MSI adds in features like IEEE 1394 FireWire support, 8-channel sound and superb BIOS features and overclocking ability, making this, simply put, an awesome motherboard."

Dont tell people here your real name. Most of us would kill for your system.

Where is the system you just built for your friend?

I'll get Aquamark and we can dual it out :D

It took about 12 hours to build it. When we first hooked everything up, there were artifacts everywhere. We returned the GT, got another, and this time there were still artifacts. We then realized that my PSU (550 watt truecontrol) was missing the front bezel controls. We returned that for a complete one, and now it works fine :D
just over 10k in 3dmark 03. I will do some more benches later.
