MSI Diamond

I could not agree more. That's why I am hoping Nvidia works the issues out. The MSI Diamond was tested by Tomshardware and it seems a little above average in all ways plus it has a creative labs processor mounted onboard for sound (Good onboard audio, I don't need the best). I also seem to remember it having 3 16X PCIE ports and one 8X. I do not plan on more than 2 8800GTX's but as time goes by that would be a nice path to go. With the 680i, when my E6600 is to slow for games I can update to quad core, and when my 2 8800GTX's get obsolete I can throw another 1 or 2 in to keep it going. So in theroy instead of having a computer last 3 years max, this one may last 5 or 6. At least thats my selling angle with the misses.On another note I finially finished my CCNA today (took me a year to get it) so I should be getting a pretty substantial raise (the reason it took so long is I am also finishing up my AAS degree (done in mid march) and working towards my BS). With the raise from the CCNA and then the raise from my AAS I should be able to complete my rig in the next 2 months. Well short of the 6 I projected when I started my new project 3 months ago. I am cheap though, so I will wait for sales on everything (I look for deals through Fatwallet).I will post my rig when it is done.
