I'll go with DS3
you can wait for P5B-E Plus, it have all solid design and great overclocker!

[tvdang7]

I would have said P5B-E a week ago until I found out that it has the current C1 965P chipset and NOT the C2 as many thought it might.

Gigabyte P965-DS3... reliable, high performing, great BIOS support and reasonable price.

No p5b-e plus in the states according to the other thread.

look here for P5B-E Plus SOLID! :

anandtech showed that there is little gain between the two steppings.

yea i just saw that today. owell 500+ on the FSB so it doesnt matter to me if 1 is better than the other they both broke 500 ez.

and looking at the polls today looks like the votes are starting to even again.......this is gonna be hard for me to pick which company gets my money.
