I chose the Asus board as it was all that I could find available to suit my needs at the time
It's not that bad, but the all black boards look stunning in comparison.
Oh indeed, look how stunning this build was:

Nothing like those graphic card coolers ever on Nvidia cards though!
Yeah the 670 should be a lot better. from the benchmarks we have seen, it looks like the 670 is close to AMD's brand new 7970 in-terms of performance.
Cheers, will have a look tomorrow then.
Not while Nvidia are having trouble keeping up with demand. The 7970 @ £360 is already a far better buy but 680 prices have only gone up since launch not down.
Very nice setup
Been toying with the idea of a motherboard change for a few months, but a can't really justify it until I change socket.
Looking like I'll be just getting the one tomorrow too, forgot I have £380 worth of direct debits coming out on the 15th
maybe a second next Friday though!

I used to defend AMD drivers, but for the last 6 months or so I have become dissillusioned.
They really are not very good. Fix one thing, break something else.
From month too month, each driver set is unremarkable.
Rather than moving forward, some drivers take performance back.
Nvidia drivers LOOK like they deliver real features and real positive performance increases.
Im going green next with a 670.

Still on the same mobo, upgraded everything else including graphics cards a couple of times.
I'm keeping this mobo and I7 980 till it dies, and think I'll do the same with my eventual tri SLI GTX 670 addition (this will last a serious long amount of time).
I think i agree with you about ati making bad drivers, but saying that the latest ones have been really good for skyrim and bf3 for me.
I just want a change though so im going nvidia and im really looking forward to trying out there drivers.
