what do you think about this setup?

[drunkenpanda]

* Gigabyte GA-K8N Pro-SLI Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard (N82E16813128301)
* HIS Hightech H180GTOQT256DVN Radeon X1800GTO 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 CrossFire Ready IceQ3 Turbo Video Card (N82E16814161012)

and AMD 64 3800 processor

for 400 US dollars for everything.

the mobo+vid card has a combo deal for 50 dollars off + 30 dollar mail in rebate

anyone have experience with this motherboard?

or should i pay 30 dollars less and get the asus a8n5x. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131569

i was gonna wait for the x2 to decr. in price, but i have no computer right now and i'm pretty desperate to replace the parts on my comp.

No experience with the motherboard, but I can testify that the speed should be ample depending on your needs.

AM2 is pretty cheap these days, too....
