Hi
i am planning to buy a motherboard and a graphic card..
i ve decided to go for xfx 9600gt graphic card...
and in mobos i was looking for msi p35 neo2-fr.
now this mobo has two pciex16 slots and is marked crossfire...
my doubt is can i use a single 9600gt on it?

u can easily use a 9600GT on that mobo.in fact u cn use any nVidia card on any crossfire supporting mobo no issues to that.wat u cant do is setup sli on a crossfires supporting mobo.

and roughly what might be cost of msi p35 neo2-fr...
and are yantraonline prices reliable?

and someone was tellin that we got a bug or something on this mobo, he said that it doesnt support grub loader for linux

roughly what might be cost of msi p35 neo2-fr in india?
are prices given on yantraonline.in reliable?
and one of my friend was saying that this mobo doesnt support grub loader, is it true?

i like it more than my previous mobo which was a Asus P5B Dlx
