Re: Proposed Mother of All Builds (MOAB)

Buying the "best" is always going to have a premium

And nether nvidia or AIT care about OC potential.

I'm a little confused by your statement. It's rare to find the enthusiast rich enough to drop $500 to $1000 on an aftermarket GPU and not care about how well it overclocks.

I would venture to guess that the super-uber-rich-but-non-technical gamer market is smaller than the rich enthusiast market, but I could be wrong.

Could we stop calling it AIT or ATI? It's AMD, and has been for a while.

The enthusiast does care about OC, Nvidia and ATI don't.

to them if the consumer can OC fine but they aren't going to rework their process to have higher OC yields.

Now the card assemblers (EVGA for example) do care about OC.

No its ATI as far as I care, plus it ensures the differentiation between the GPU and CPU sides.

Sheesh, that's being a little difficult. It's been one company since 2006.

Anandtech review of the mobo I used:

»www.anandtech.com/show/6 ··· g-review

highlight:

Overclocking results some of the best we have seen on Z77, easily hitting a massive 5.0 GHz with our review sample without issues, and seemingly would go beyond this given a better cooling environment. ASUS is increasing the levels of manual overclock options in the BIOS, with CPU Level UP giving three different speeds to choose as well as a Gamer OC mode. BIOS options for overclocking, as always with ASUS, are top notch, and we were able to push our RAM harder and further with our CPU in the MVF than in any other Z77 motherboard.

Won't argue that one.
