It may look better, but it also costs £20 more than an XFX nForce 680i SLI and we'd certainly be tempted to sit back and wait to see if the nForce 780i SLI suffers from the same significantly high number of board deaths that the nForce 680i SLI had - personally I'd choose a company with a good RMA service and warranty period, just to be safe. In that respect, XFX's two year warranty is clearly outshone by its American alternative, EVGA, which offers a fantastic and industry leading ten year warranty.

The nForce 780i SLI suffers from stuff that just hasn't been updated; no solid aluminium capacitors, no re-FABed chipsets on a cooler process, no updated BIOS flashing utilities, no overclocking safe guards and not even a CMOS button.
