    My nforce 590 got obsoleted but I RMA'ed it for a nforce 680i board. Those new video cards are way too pricey.

    I got obsoleted. I was still within the 30 day return so I exchanged it for the eVGA board. The Asus boards look like shit.

    that evga board has too many problems atm. i'll wait for another manufacturer or 2-3 bios updates. terrible sound issues either with on-board or external. not liking the fact u have to use a dremel tool to drill out holes in the zalman hsf to fit the poorly placed capacitors either. northbridge's hsf poorly placed which blows hot air on the cpu and gets to hot without it. meh, i'll wait for a better board and the asus is just to overpriced atm.
