This will be my new motherboard upgrade http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813138106

Sound awesome, doesn't it?

You like it? Or do you recommend other ones? I will barely be able to buy this at the end of June.

Looks like a good price. Only downside I see is that it still uses the old SB600, but, so do all 770 & 790 boards. Only other question is how is the BIOS. One reviewer *claimed* he had issues changing the CPU voltage. I'd be inclined to chalk it up to incompetence since it is a Newegg review, but it is something worth checking into. Overall, though, it looks pretty good. What do you plan to use it for (ie, CPU, Ram, GFX, etc.).

Gaming, so my 9600 will have an easier bottleneck of my CPU.

What is wrong with the South Bridge 600?

You gotta give AMD some credit, decent looking motherboards for low dollars.
