==========================================================
My personal thinking.....Every product is having pros n cons. I saw many good n bad reviews on same product. I don't want to judge prodcts brand, services by members experience as its different form member to member, some having good experince with xfx, msi, evga but may be some not they loving asus, zotac, gigabyte as they have good expe. with this brands. I want brand which really giving quality products.
About vfm i am not thinkig that if x58 board coming with 10k then its a good vfm but what about its quality, durability, performance lots of things r there so i am not going over price if product quality is good & if its in my budjet then i will prefer that product.
