P5K Deluxe MB Died! Need Replacement. Help!

[quickpaw]

Well, I've enjoyed ASUS for the last time. Their P5K Deluxe board I got is pretty much dead in the water. No beeps, no post, no boot. Seems to be a know prob with this board, but anyway, I'm returning it.


In the mean time, I need a replacement. Can anyone recommend something that is stable, and good for Overclocking? Around $200 bucks is my limit. My current hardware is:

OCZ Platinum Revision 2 2GB DDR2-800 4-4-4-15
BFG 8800GTS Overclocked 640meg
OCZ GameXStream OCZ600GXSSLI ATX12V 600W
Intel e6750
Soundblaster X-fi XtremeMusic
WD Rapter 74gig

one word Gigabyte P35 DS3r. well a couple of words. its a very good board supports 1066 ram, plus the 45nm cpu's coming at the end of the year. and supports 1333fsb too. can't go wrong with it

I would also recommend Abit IP35 Pro. An exceptional board.

Good news. I got a Gigabyte P35 DS3R and having no problems! I'm so glad I have a Micro Center by me. I was going to go for the Abit that was suggested, but they were sold out.

This board seems rock solid. The best part is I didn't have to reinstall windows.

Just one last note:

DO NOT GET THE ASUS P5K DELUXE...or any of the P5K boards for that matter. When I was at Micro Center, they said that 3 of those boards crapped out that day. For shame ASUS

Thanks again for you guy's help!
