ok, but things would be quicker in windows? and does the spec look compatible? i never used a EVGA mobo, always used Asus and DFI

Thanks for the Info, im trying to stay away from Asus products, i got my 3820x2 gone for a RMA so this might be resolved if they replace the card with a new one. The RMA with asus is a pain in the time taken to get a replacement, I know there products are good but need a good warranty as well, so if they sent me a 4890 there would be no point upgrading. I have tried to clock the cpu over 3.2 ghz but it wont do any higher.
