He wants an ATI graphics card.. suggesting Nvidia chipsets isn't a great idea for system stability, as the drivers pretty much never get along well.
To: the OP
I suggest a 3200 chipset, and the 2 best I know of are the DFI board, and the Asus A8R32 MVP Deluxe (my board).
The MVP is a fantastic board, and while its a bit more expensive then the others, it's rock solid stable, has a TON of options for expansion, and has pleanty of features.
In any case I don't recomend mixing an ATI graphics card with Nvidia chipset.
DoggyDaddi said:The entire point of my post, was in the interest of a stable rig, and thus a less troublesome, and more enjoyable gaming or general computer experience. It's simple .. for the best stability.. keep ATI with ATI... and Nvidia with Nvidia. I never claimed Crossfire was the 'Holy Grail' to any problem, but by and large, ATI has far less stability issues then Nvidia.
As far as SLI is concerned... doesnt SLI require profiles for games to be usefull? Baging on ATI for not building support into its drivers for a game is a bit hypocritical
pfunkman said:NO the problem with your post is its horse shit people have been using NVIDIA chipsets with ATI cards for a long time with absolutely no problems whatsoever. look at the number of people with Nforce 4 chipsets and X1900 cards its a very popular setup.
Hell there hasnt even been problems with running an ATI card with NVIDIA card in a long ass time theres even a huge thread about it here.
When you chime in and tell someone that X chipset dont play well with X card when its been proven over the last couple years it does people are not going to look to kindly on your bogus statement.

DoggyDaddi said:Actually.. I can't run an Nvidia card with my AIW 9600 pro, as I've tried with several cards.. but I guess I just happen to be that one in a hundred million random chance that can actually speak from experience rather then swearing like a 10 year old who just watched his first adult film and just can't help himself. Oh well...

We now return you to your regularly scheduled over-reaction.
