790GX vs 790FX?

[Forevermore1337]

I was just wondering what the difference is. There's a whole 30 dollar difference in the two motherboards i'm considering, and one is a GX and one is an FX. Can someone explain to me the benefits of the newer FX and if it's worth it.

Thanks.

The GX just has onboards video, but is really the same chip as the 790X, runs CF in 8X-8X. The 790FX runs CF in 16X-16X.
