Some of you may know I have a tendancy to be a little off the rails when it comes to computers. I'll do anything to anything.

Has anyone seen a CrossfireX C2D motherboard that is DDR2?

Most of you who know what I'm asking are probably thinking "Yeah, you already have one you muppet"

However. I want four cards. I cannot find a C2D board that does that. My only choice seems to be an Asus M3A32-MVP Delux. Which is an AM2+ board. Which is Phenom. Phenoms are awful. I would really rather not go there, and I'm sure at least some of you understand my hesitance with that. Even the 9850 isn't particularly competetive.

    I read something about a new line coming out soon. Wait it out and see. Or maybe that was DDR3.

      Yeah - That's the problem. I don't see enough gain in going to DDR3 yet, so I'd really rather keep my excessive amount of DDR2 :B

      That said, the only options so far is a goddamn Phenom, I'd rather eat shit covered glass, or a pair of X2's, which is no bad thing, but the 3870's are barely out of the box.

    I did lol when AMD said they were going to introduce a three core CPU, you know, to fill the nonexistent gap in the market.

      Oh man, that three core CPU is making a killing!

      Never, EVER, has a processor sat on so many shelves under a mile of dust and phlegm.

    Anybody who buys a Phenom is an idiot.

    However, now we start to see the bad side of AMD owning ATi - not enough boards!

      Hence me really not wanting to buy one!

      I can't seem to find one, which is a pisser. Don't really fancy going dual X2, since I barely only just got these goddamn cards.

      Would be a crapload cheaper though..

          No doubt - If Phenoms weren't so bleh, then I'd be running that bad boy right now.

            yeah, i don't know what they were thinking putting Phenoms out in the state they did, very unlike AMD

              Here's hoping (Now that they have some GOOD cards out in the shape of the 4850's) that someone starts paying attention to dealing with these POS proccessors that they're trying to sell..
