should be a nice rig. That new p35 chipset is supposed to be a really strong overclocker, push that 6750 good n hard. Shame about the x1950pro, I would have looked for a x1950xt for the extra pixel and vertex shader power, if you are sticking with a dx9 card.

The MB is fantastic! They even threw in an e-sata card! Overclocking can be done via Windows as advertised.

I had problems getting the 1950 pro so I just settled for an 8600 GTS; and it rocks! I was really surprised by the AA and resolution this puppy can handle. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
