yea true... I liked the 9590 because it is a stable overclock to 5 ghz. I have never overclocked before with the CPU, only my 7950 when I had one. It could overclock like a beast.
You were spot on though kitty, and ak47, just because I spend so much on GPUs doesnt mean I want to just shell out money everywhere
gotta be efficient with my money in some spots... if it doesn't hamper my experience... with the 8350 I am afraid of bottlenecks, same as with the pcie 2.0 slots...
I like the Asus board though, I've been looking at them and that is one that caught my eye. AMD boards are amazing bang for the buck.
