MSi is teasing a new AMX board at computex, you can clearly see the lack of a square cut in the middle, and spread out pin covers as an indication of the AM3+ socket layout. From what I see, it screams "MICRO ATX AMD FX BOARD".
Edit: Here we go...
The second 770 LOL. You are increasing your gaming performance so much more than an i7... i7s nowadays are only for the people who have to run super heavy productivity apps alongside gaming..
No, no and no. High 2XMSAA Low AA post should give you steady 60FPS. A 7970/GHz is the minimum for BF4 Playability at Ultra, they will still have some drops in the low 40s (I think its playable but you should aim for 50+)
760 is the better choice. I love mine and it should handle most games on high without a problem. I like my ASUS DCUII 760, but what 760s are available in your area?
Sapphire Tri-X all the way! From the results, it seems much more consistent in clock speed than reference. MSI Gaming 290 is not bad either (Then again, they might have worse VRMs then the Lightnings I am used to seeing).
