Hi all,
Well i've got most of my components put together for my new pc, however i've yet to choose a motherboard. I'm reluctant to get the DFI lanparty, as i've heard mixed negative feedback. To those that have these boards don't get offended, but I would rather something thats solid and stable.
I got the VA3000 Dream Tower so I want a mobo that connects to the USB2/IEEE1394 and audio connectors on top. Also our network tech brough in his new PC the other day and it was using the latest Intel Desktop Board mobo. I really liked the heat monitoring software and tweakability that allowed so i'd like the equivalent in Nforce 4. Also I don't need SLI.
I would also like to get a board that comes with ATA/SATA cables and any connections I need. I was thinking about the Gigabyte GIGABYTE "GA-K8N Ultra-9:

or
MSI "K8N Neo4 Platinum" NVIDIA nForce4 Ultra:

Basically I want something thats stable, good heat monitoring / sensors, comes with a good warranty and has the ability to overclock if I desire.
So with that, i'd like your recommendations.
Thanks in advance
James
