hey everyone just a quick question about which one to get?

Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P (Socket AM3)

or

Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P (Socket AM3)

i was thinking of the fxt because of better crossfire capabilities but need some help.

cheers for any advice, Godhatch

Depends, the FX is a superior chipset and is a superior board in (as far as i'm aware) every way. But the other is cheaper, and will not perform any noticeably worse as long as you don't use xfire.

cheers for the quick reply, ordered it now, i will want cross fire later in it's life so it's the wiser choice.

thanks again.
