ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe, and DFI Lanparty Expert where the ones I was going with, hat is Crossfire? Anyhow let me know which is best.
 
Why are you buying the video card from ZipZoomFly for $800??

You can buy a 7900GTX on newegg for $490.
 
Thats the regular Extreme, 675Mhz, XXX is factory overclocked, so you still get the warranty. Its also 700Mhz
 
OK, then go for it! $300 extra for a little OC video card does not seem worth it to me, but heck, whatever floats your boat.
 
Yea your right, its kinda dumb, you wont notice the 25Mhz.

Can we get back to the mobo please.

Theres no real best between those boards. If your going to be doing alot of overclocking go with the DFI. If you just want a solid high end board and arent going to doing any extreme overclocking go with the ASUS.

hat is Crossfire?
Neither of them support crossfire, if thats what your asking.
 
What would be considered extreme overclocking? I plan to liquid cool and get the CPU to 600mhz atleast, and the GPU 50mhz.
 
ok 600mhz that is crazy

i would never do that but with some nice watercooling you can but the power consumption will be crazy i dont think its going to be worth it..
 
That really isn't worth the money. Besides, isnt the warranty still good after you overclock that card yourself? I know they dont void the warranty for some high end cards.
 
They will all run great but it really depends what you are going to use them for let us know that and we can make a better decision. Read the user reviews they help ALOT!
