Will someone help me choose a mobo for a q6600 from this list?

[Super strokey]

I wanted the DFI lanparty DK but i would need to ship out for it and im being impatient so i have compiled a short list of all the mobos from search this forum that seem to fit my budget and wants with hopes that i can get a decisions and run with it tomorrow.

Ok so here is the list and price: Please note that i am in Canada

1. P5K-E $160
2. P5n-E $119
3. Lanparty (DK need to ship for this one though so please keep that in mind) $149
4. MSI Neo-FR $132
5. P5K vanilla
6. anything else...?

edit:
the GIGABYTE P35-DS3R any good also?


If anyone knows i would apprecaite it. Im looking for to pair it up with some ddr2-800 and hopeing for around 3.6 ghz. Thanks

p5k-e out of those


make sure that u dont get a 680i or 650i board with a quad the p35 and x38 are ur best picks

[BenchZowner]

The Abit IP35 Pro... 168$ @ ClubIT

[Super strokey]

none local and they are hard to find in canada

[zfactor]

imo the dk would be my pick

[Supertim0r]

DFI first choice, P5K-E second

the DFI is available at Directcanada

*the p5k-e is a "cheaper p5k dx"

[RAW-Raptor22]

Gigabyte for me!

[coo-coo-clocker]

the DFI for BIOS settings out da wazoo, and the P5K-E for tried/true/affordable/stable.

yeah the dfi was my fist choice fors ure but i can only get shipped, and as i feel impatient i think im gonna pick something up locally in edmonton and thats limiting cause our comp shops suck donkey.... stuff. P5k-E sounds good unless someone can think of a reason not to get it.

yeah i know about that but like i said I would have to ship it and if its only marginally better then i dont really see teh point when i can just walk down the street for a p5k-e

[zfactor]

gotcha

imo the only asus im even considering is the maximus. i have had way to many bad asus mobo's and im 99% going with the dfi lp over the asus

Best one I can find that would be local pick-up for you is P5K-E (http://www.b-com.ca/product.php?productid=219464&cat=297&page=2) for CA$159.88

[turtletrax]

My vote goes to the DFI. More money, more hassle, more power :cool:

[BTK]

i vote ds3r

[Super strokey]

so are pretty much any of these mobos a good choice?

[[XC] DragonOrta]

MSI Neo2-FR.

P5N-E SLI will have a FSB wall at ~333fsb for a quadcore.

[BTK]

DS3R

[Super strokey]

ordered:

Dfi lanparty DK
q6600 (hopefully slacr)
2x1 gig ddr2 800 ocz platinum XTC rev.2
Utlima 90
92 mm panaflo
