Nice, though just curious why you went with the Intel MB? I was wondering why you have a GTX 240 in the plans as well until I noticed that you have F@H running because I'll admit it seems they have the clients working much better for the Nvidia cards. This GTX 460 I have folds pretty stinking good though it sucks some power. ;)

Oh hell. I meant GTX460. Stupid me. For some reason I keep thinking the new Nvidia card is GTX240. I have even looked up prices for GTX240 thinking I was looking at the new card.

It's fixed.

I chose an Intel motherboard because I liked the fact it didn't have any legacy ports on the back. Not that it's a big deal I just liked it. I would have also liked if it didn't have built in audio or pci slots, but *sigh* we can't have everything we want.:) It over clocks well.

Doh, and I meant the 465 I have...I think the 460s are a little better on the power draw from what I have seen.
