Au contraire, I would have to argue that the DFI looks much "cooler" than the Gigabyte. As for actual cooling, Gigabyte's got DFI beat. My main reason for the DFI is to actually get to try out the amazing Genie BIOS.
DFI + Black Edition AMD = Epic Overclock?

I read through a lot of the plastidip threads recently and according to people who've used it, it DOES work on SECC and you wouldn't have to sand. Sounds like a win/win to me.
That's good news, especially since I don't really have somewhere to sand. Can someone tell me exactly what plasti-dip is and how it differs from regular spraypaint?

woot another DFI fan!
*looks at sig rig* oh wait...

Got around to reading the plasti-dip threads and am liking the fact that there is no prep work. Still get the feeling that its gonna come out all plastic-y and weird textured but I guess the spray on type is different.

Previous question: Anyone vouch for the performance gains of RAID 0? Or maybe recount bad experiences?
