Hi. Looking to make a switch from AMD to Intel and Im a bit rusty when it comes to intel and brands.
By the end of this year, I would like to have upgraded my CPU to the new 45nm Quad core when it gets released and want to get a the new 9800 series Nvidia card. I have heard the new Nvidias will need PCIe 2.0 I will also be upgrading to the 64 bit version of Vista Home premium so I can 8 GB of RAM.
So that being said, what brands of mobos in the intel world are good? DFI makes some monster boards for AMD, but how are their boards for intel? Are intel brand motherboards good deals?
thanks for the input
