Sad! just looked up my original scores for a voodoo 3000 which was 162.2. hardy har har. You are smoking my boy. I don't think we have any reason for any disappointment for the price/performance at all. plus you still have the step up program. Also all, have been advised by the egg that...

I really like the modular PS's, but this item looks "de-activated" at the egg. I can't say enough for Corsair's HX series. Have both the 520 and 620 and they have worked flawless. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139002 Could also try jonny guru's recommends at...

is it possible that GPU-Z only reports what is sees as hardware processing units and simply does not show the in-active units? In other words, it "sees" the 216 units, but only 192 are active.?

Ditto. Don't lump everyone into the same catagory.

on with live chat getting no-where. They want to know why I'm not calling EVGA.

Doh...of course it's 'cause they want you to come back and spend more money! Which you are certainly going to do now!

Bump for a very solid Mobo chip combo. I have this in one of my builds and they work great together.

Well, called Newegg CSR is telling us that we need to contact the mfr to see if the rebate will be honored. Any reps here can get us an answer?

Not very [H] of them to offer a deal like this, say oops, our bad and not give update the rebate so that it works. Bad Newegg Bad.:mad: Info from "World Wide Rebate" who is the processing this rebate at www.worldwiderebates.com and enter Rebate Offer Number "EGA-6163" and it shows rebate...

Awesome combo. I bought this about a month ago and everything worked great right out of the box and blazing fast. you will really like the stability of this Asus board.

Modular = you only plug in the cables you need = much less clutter in your case & much easier to get in there and switch things out.

I agree with Aon. Corsair HX series are great solid PSU's. If you're going to stick with a single card solution 1x8800, then you can go with the hx520. But, if you're going to sli, then I would stick with the HX620. There is a good review on Jonny Guru's website about the Corsair psu's...

Thanks for the coupon code. I was able to pick one of these puppies up b4 they were out of stock. Solid card with quiet cooling coming my way.

This is a great product if you want a good mix of value and quiet. I too cannot stand a noisy box and this works great for me. I rarely hear it unless it is under a large load in a game and then even rarely.

I purchased the pro version of this mobo when it first came out and burned out 2 pata drives. This board/jmicron controller combo hates that. I finally got a sata burner with a pata dvd and got the bugs worked out. Make sure your bios is set correctly. I don't have it in front of me now, but...
