I'm doing a new build and am wrestling between 2 boards.
I've concluded that I am probably going with an Intel core 2 duo E6750 instead of quad core, mainly for the money difference.
I know Tom's mid-range pcbuild recommened the MSI P6N SLI Platinum, but I was considering the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R also. The money is nearly the same. I kind of doubt I would do two graphics cards on the MSI since it drops to 8x each instead of 16x for one. If that's the case, I'm really not sure what (if any) major pros or cons are for one mobo versus the other...?
Would anyone be willing to throw their 2 cents in? If you an another mobo that would be comparible, let me know and what the pros vs. cons are.
Thanks!
