Motherboard Videocard conflict?
Reply
Posted 2004-12-02, 10:22 PM
I was considering buying this mobo for my new cpu... But then i read this review:

Quote:
Just a note to advise I bought this board along with a Sapphire 9800 Pro. It would stop sending signals to the monitor about 5-10 minutes into most games.

RMA department at NCIX is aware that depending on which revision of MB you get, you may have problems with ATI products.

I have ordered the XFX GeForce 6600GT as a replacement
I have a Sapphire 9800 128. And i can't help but be a little worried about this mobo. I'm also buying AMD ATHLON 64 3000+ PROCESSOR S754 2.0GHZ 512KB L2 CACHE RETAIL BOX processor.

Thoughts?

Get something different. Even if they say its the new revision, better not to even go down that road. Get a different brand or get a new video card like they dude that had the problem did.

Get the 256 meg version of the 9800 pro...in the long run it will be worth it. Also, get that Abit S754 motherboard.

Maybe i should email ASUS or something and ask them if they're board will support my system... Yeah i think i might do that...

I already own a 9800 128mb... im not about to go out and buy a brand new 256 mb. Good suggestion though.

I'll look into the board you recommended mantra.

Thanks for the tips folks.
