Looks interesting but can't seem to find any more details on the site. Picture doesn't link to anything.

If you look around hard enough, you can get them separately for slightly less - not to mention that a 7900GT is probably a better investment at this point.

A stock 7900gt out performs the 7800gtx - and many people are modding their 7900gt to 7900gtx (clock speeds).

So for about $50 more you get excellent value.

Get a good dual PEG x16 mobo from DFI ($125) and for a $100 more than this deal you get a great plaform. I have not read any success stories where people have flashed the eVGA mobo with the (better) Jetway BIOS.

But yeah, $100 does not grow on trees if you are on a budget.

I have built two systems on this package and while it isn't top of the line stuff, it is a stable motherboard, packaged with a capable graphics card. Though, at the time of my purchases the 7900 series wasn't out yet.
