oh wow, now i am getting confused as to if I should even use the Asus Z7S board. :\
Tyan and Supermicro seem to have produced some good boards as well. But aren't they clocked towards severs? And not really towards workstation and or gaming (even though they have pcie2.0)? I hoping to OC my Xeons a little bit. Do the Tyan and/or Supermicro boards have memory timing/vcore tweaks as well?

The eATX boards do not bother me :\ I am planning to use the MM UFO, so space shouldn't be an issue.
