Classified question

E759 NF200 as good as E760 or E762?

Thinking I might have to just say screw it and go for the right board now.

Bidding on a E759 classy on ebay.. it is up to $350 now... with Chipset WB, and H50 cooler.

Or for about the same price (AMIR) I can get a E760 from newegg.

Supposedly the difference is very minimal. I dunno for sure, I only have the nf200 boards.

i have found that the E760 seems to have a slight clocking advantage....

and unless running like dual 295's and another pci-e card you will not need the nf200 for the extra lanes

I would say go with new E760 just so you have the whole warranty deal

Well if I get outbid I will be ordering the E760 tomorrow.

The guy with the cheap bloodrage never got back to me, so I assume the guy "pending payment" came through today :(

Really do not want to spend this kind of money on a mobo, but it is the only way I am going to be able to help the team.

If you still looking for a BloodRage here is one for sale.

Agreed!

E759 and E760 both = win. Go with whatever has the warranty. If both have it then go for the cheapest.

I got outbid on the used classified. But have a Bloodrage coming in a couple of weeks (shipped from Canada and had to pay with e-Check) for about $120 less

If its not enough, with USB3/SATA3 hitting the X58 boards, I imagine the classifieds will only continue to come down in price, and can pick one up later.

just letting you know as I have used the blood rage, be very careful with them, theyre sockets are a lil funny, and if you get a strange post issue, try one stick at a time in each slot, as for some rason they lose ram slots.
