Can't find all the necessary information i'm looking for when it comes to a new motherboard, so I'll ask here!
I'm looking for a motherboard with the following:
Q9450-ready
DDR2 (up to 8GBs)
Crossfire-ready
Award BIOS (blue background, white letters, red highlight... i find this BIOS to be the one I'm most comfortable with)
Nice Overclocking capabilities
(what chipset would you recommend for best Crossfire support? I'm running tri-monitors w/ resolution at 3840x1024)
Budget of $300 including shipping
I'm sure with a board that has all that, the rest of the stuff I need will already be there... No links necessary, I'll be researching the replies, but please give a bit of a description on which board you would prefer and a current price...
I was reading about the ASUS Maximus and Rampage boards, and I've been a fan of DFI for quite a while, was also considering gigabyte, but the only board I know of that always has Award BIOS is DFI...
So, what do you recommend?
