hi,
I'm buying a new computer and I almost finished, one last thing I forgot is the MB, I mean I chose one but I forgot to ask this. Is the ASUS P5QL-E better than the Gigabyte P43 (DS3) board?
I'm planning on slight overclocking (Q6600).

Pros: Absolutely a breeze to overclock. I have a Q6600 and it's overclocked to 3.6 on air. (Xigmatek HDT-S1283) And I do recommend using the Xigmatec Crossbow with it.
I don't know why people are having such problems with their HD Audio...My realtek HD audio works perfect front and back. I found the manual more than adequate and ASUS's front panel hookup a breeze. This board represents a huge bang 4 the buck! Really people, just look at all you get for around a hundred bucks!!!
