So I'm replacing the motherboard and case and have been deciding which motherboard to get. I was pretty much set to go with the ASUS P5k premium or deluxe, but after hearing about it's issues..
Gigabyte's P35-DQ6 and X38-DQ6 (any major differences?) seem to be the most issue free, not so much information regarding the P35-DS3, and DFI's LANParty UT T2R seems like it has the highest FSB wall currently. Yet despite all this, most record benches seem to involve P5K motherboards anyway.. anyone care to enlighten me on why? :confused:
I'm leaning towards the UT T2R right now because I like the advanced options of DFI and ASUS's bios, in stark contrast to Gigabyte's (can't even change command rate!). Can anyone tell me how good the chipset cooling is on the DFI? Or why I should go with the GBs?
