Windows 7 HD 7770 or HD 6850 or others?

Windows 7 When buying a M/B...
FYI Tip: When buying a (new) Motherboard, make sure/check that its BIOS is up to date, even though it may be fresh off the shelf. Just cus a M/B is brand new out of the box doesn't mean its BIOS does not need to be flashed. It's a good practice to check before installing an OS. Cheers, Drew...- Drew
