Hi, I have a P965 DS3 Rev. 1.0 mb that I believe has crapped out on me. I was wondering what would be a good replacement mb from GB for mine. I am running a 6400 cpu and 2GB of Mushkin XP2 DDRII ram. Can anyone suggest a mb to replace my DS3?

Thanks

a P35 chipset gigabyte motherboard should be a good choice.

You too? Mine died last week. Why would you want to buy another Gigabyte board? I'm looking at the DFI Blood Iron, MSI Neo2, and DFI DK P35. What's your price range?

Blood Iron! I have one, the best bang/buck board ever!

MSI neo2 is one great board

DFI Infinity Blood Iron or perhaps Asus P5K Pro.

Thanks for the replies guys. I have had both DFI and Asus boards (currently have the A8N Sli Premium in one rig) and I like both manufacturers. I remember DFI had good bios updates and even ones tweaked by third parties. I really want a stable board and I will probably OC it, but i'm not looking to go crazy with it. I don't want to spend very much this time around, so the DFI BI looks good, as long as it's a stable board? All the Asus boards i've ever had were stable too. Mad-skills, I don't see the P5K-Pro on the sites I visit (Cdn), can you post a link to one?

Thanks
