Alright gentlemen (and ladies),
I'm looking for a new board for my QX9650. My DFI ltx48t2r has become ridiculously unstable (i think it is dieing a slow death). I'm looking for one of the boards available, will consider ddr3 boards as well (I'll eventually go that route anyway), but certainly not writing off the ddr2 (as I have already invested in those). I have a decent setup as is, the cpu w/ TRUE, ddr2 @ 1066, gtx280, 1000w ps, etc. Its not TOP of the line these days, but still a great setup. There just isnt as big of a market for lga775 boards anymore. I havent been following the computer world much these days as school eats up a lot of time, but I still like to game on the pc. I want something that can handle a decent oc (3.6 is easy, would like to hover around the 4.0 range ultimately). I am currently considerring the DFI UTx48t2r, although I wasn't extremely impressed with the dfi board I have currently (as far as reliability goes, I'm on my 3rd one and tired of swapping it out). I am considerring buying a used Asus rampage extreme, but kinda weary about buying a used board. I don't know the guy or how he ran it. I will have the option to bench test it before commiting to it, which is nice. Otherwise, looking for more opinions from the people in the "know". Thanks for any help.
