This Motherboard from the SBM ($500 PC) is out of stock; GIGABYTE GA-EP35-DS3L

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813128337



Does anyone know what a comparable Motherboard would be that would accept all the other Components and also handle an equal level of overclocking, near the same price range of course?

This is my first DIY PC Build.

Or can anyone recommend another site beside NewEgg or TigerDirect that is trustworthy which would have the same MB.

Both have newer chipsets, and PCIE 2.0.

Thanks. I'll get the 1st one. And I am guessing that "newer chipsets, and PCIE 2.0" is better or equivalent to the SBM MB used.

Thanks again.

Slightly better, but I don't have links to the benchmarks to back it up. Someone will probably post some.
