Well then I need an interim board. I'd love the Rampage, but it's just too much money. What's the best board without breaking the bank?

the biostar is very good for ocing and is one of the lowest priced.

Biostar, interesting...



I just picked up the Foxconn Blodrage for 299.00 it will be fun to test it against the X58 Extreme.

Next week should be a fun week, I hope we get a cold spell up here soon, but for this week I will do all my air testing, then go to antifreeze as soon as the temp drops, prob next weekend...

Yea, i bet there will be some good sales after the 1st, since most stores are reporting poor earnings, some will be overstocked and that is good for us,.

My processor is going to be ordered on Monday, I hope I get a good one. I want to see if DFi is going to be coming out with a X58 DK board. I was never a big DFi guy but this P35 I'm using has grown on me. I emailed them, hopefully I'll get a response.

I won't comment on the Asus boards, but GIGABYTE is the most reliable here.
