[fatal1ty_fan]

im thanking of geting the fatal1ty mobo for my computer im building
what are the pos and cons of this mobo

 

[Praetor]

Pros
- It's designed with cooling, aesthetics and some performance in mind
- The cooling considerations are the thing that sets this apart really
- Abit's gone a long way to make this a friendly board to work with

Cons
- For the price of the board you're not getting enough performance, better boards exist for less (i.e., K8N Neo4 Platinum and Neo4 SLI/Platinum, Lanparty NF4Ultra-D, Lanparty NF4SLI-DR)
- Even if you dont care about superior performance, it's an expensive board

whaen it comes down in price would it be better then and when is it going to come down in price

From both a value and absolute performance perspective, i'd say the MSI/DFI boards are vastly superior (and you can get them NOW as they are affordable in comparison).
