Alright, I've been having problems looking around at different motherboards recently. I keep going around continuously on newegg between the same 6 motherboards without deciding because either one or the other has a problem of some such.
the ASUS p5k deluxe has known raid issues, the gigabyte GA p35 dq6 has a problem where a video card any larger than 9 inches in length will dissallow use of some of your ram slots. and from there, reviews seem to joyfully continue to go downhill.
Could someone out there please help me in my decision on a motherboard?
Im wanting:
■Core 2 quad compatable
■DDR2 1066 standard. hell for the sake of it, if you can find a more stable motherboard that runs DDR2800 i might just go with that one instead.
■2 PCIe slots both running 16x, i hate how some motherboards run the second at a lower speed
■Enough room to buy a video card of any size and not worry about it getting in the way of everything else.
If I could get some assistance with this, it would be great. Thanks everybody.
