Worth looking at? Never used jetway, but really just need to inject some new life into an old pc. It's 3 times as loud as my 2 newer systems(s939 and am2). Or would you just go with a cheaper 770 or a 790gx? Hate upgrade decisions System gets used alot for WoW, and some FPS's....yes i know...it's a suicide mission most often, but shrug....you learn to not be the last one into the room an stuck with the slow pc...

Also of note this is prep for a christmas upgrade, but some of the peices will be bought an hidden til christmas

I'm not sure I'd trust Jetway to last as long as your current systems - but that's just from what I've picked up around the net, never had one. Biostar's seem to be pretty good boards nowadays. Given those choices that's the one I'd take ...

Thanks appreciate the timely response. Ya once i ran across the biostar for just $10 more i was pretty much sold on it. I got 2 biostar tforce 939 boards still running flawlessly after couple years. Any idea when Pci Exp 3.0 will make it market? Saw somewhere that the 3.0 standard has been out for review for a month or more now.

No clue. I'm not very hot on graphics since most of my games are strategy ...
