do you think the chipset fan will interfere with my zalman hs on my 7800gtx. thats the only thing keeping me from placing my order on newegg. i want to stick with amd. im gonna get a brisbane 4800 and some new g skill ram and keep everything else in my sig. also when i replace the mobo/cpu/ram can i just boot right up without having to reload xp?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

honestly cant say, but a 8800gts with stock cooling clears fine. Which zalman cooling are you using?
dunno about the fan interference, but in all likely-hood you will have to re-install windows when you switch you're mb. if it was just a cpu/ram swap that would be fine, but motherboards have all sorts of drivers and crap that might confuse windows. sometimes if its a mb in the same family.....its might kinda sorta work, but IMO its always best to do a fresh install with such a hardware change.
