Hello,
I'm busy tearing my hair out as I've been reading reviews 'til my eyes bleed and I still can't decide on what motherboard to get. I'm trying to order parts for my next PC in the next few days and the mobo is one of the last (and biggest) components I have yet to decide on.
E8400 support is a must, since that is what I'll be using. SLI/crossfire is pointless for me as I'm going with a single-card 8800GT. I'll be OCing the CPU to 400FSB and using DDR2 800.
From my previous thread asking between the 780i and X38, it seems it was most logical for me to choose ... P35 lol. So I've been looking at P35 boards, but no idea what manufacturer to go with. I've had good experiences with my Asus board, but Gigabyte also seems to be well-received.
I'm just not sure what to choose since every board has some negative reviews about one thing or another.
Thanks in advance
