More Information

I plan on purchasing an e8400 wolfdale. I currently have an 8800GTS G92. I run a RAID/0 SATA3 config. I have 3gig DDR2 800

I plan on re-using this hardware on the intel, but im not sure which of these two chipsets suit my needs. Above all, RAID stability is very (extremely) important. Unsure if i'll ever take advantage of SLI or Xfire

Im leaning more towards one, but Id rather hear what the rest of you think before I say it.

also, if you have any suggestions by all means .. let me know. Ideally I just want a PCIx 2.0, 45nm, RAID compatable board. Ive used MSI in the past but Id like to try something different since ive had a few issues with them. Keep in mind, I will not be spending over $150

Thanks for your feedback

P5Q PRO hands down. ICH10R FTW! Especially if you overclock.

If you need a good RAID board, go for P5Q Pro. Keep in mind, however, that it's intel mobo, so you won't bee able to go sli.
