    Sounds about right. I was originally going to get the 902 as well, but I found a great sale on the coolermaster and decided it was the way to go. I have to say though, after all my research the 1090T > i5-760 for sure. -innocent2

    When I get my GTX570 my total price for this rig will go from 800 to 1100 so yours is still much cheaper than mine.

    Honestly, I don't want to upgrade my GPU, the 4870 is a great card, but I really want Direct X 11 :facepalm:.

    oh well, maybe I can sell the 4870 or reuse it in a future build. If I can sell it for $100 I'll be happy.
     
  5. I guess I'm still cool for now.. lot better than my old setup.. n I can run everything pretty smoothly at full res.

    MSI.

    They build crazy solid components.
     
  8. I have had good parts from both manufacturers...

    I'm leaning towards the MSI too. My current boards is from them and I haven't had any problems with it.
     
  10. just cause you don't have any problems now.. don't mean you won't have 'em later.. -whistle

    lol.. nah get the MSI.. it looks better... plus it's won an award on there..
     
  11. i hate MSI , had 3 mobos from them 3 diff builds from different years and all 3 crapped out in the first week literally

    the last time i bought an Asus board it wouldn't post from the get go. The fix for some weird reason was DDR 2100 ram so I could get into the BIOS to change a setting.

    I really like the case, I think it was a better choice than the Antec 900 I was originally going to go with. The only bad thing about it is the limited space for videocards :(
