Sucks thought I found a cheaper mobo oh well. Click to expand... The 790FX is the better chip. The 790GX chipset is just the 790X chip with onboard video added that runs C/F in 8X-8X. The 790FX has no onboard and runs C/F in 16X-16X

Mitch? banned Apr 29, 2009 #6 Currently i don't believe so. No AMD boards do, and i think that Intel's Skulltrail platforms may.
