...*droooooll*...

the AMD one, in inter perspective is way faster. sli is amazing. i would go with the amd one right away, but its frickin expensive......GOD LIKE. if you are playing the odd game, and not going all out with games, i would go with the sli one. simply because geforce is better with video applicaitons rather than games.

go with amd. they pwn.

if i were gaming, i would get an amd mobo and use the radeon x850 pci-e and the amd. ati and amd work best for gaming and intel and nvidia work best with not gaming.

I want one. That will be a monster of a machine! I'd go with the AMD and ATI option personally...
