ASUS PT6 or Gigabyte EX58-UD3R ?

[stephenmcalinden]

Hey guys,

Question regarding the ASUS PT6 and Gigabyte-UD3R.
Was until today going to buy the gigabyte board and before finalising my build i was checking the above and below products price wise, started looking into the ASUS board and read a few benchmarks about it.sounds very good. Just wondering what you guys prefer out of the two budget boards, I'm on a budget of around £150-175 for a board. Don't think ill be doing much overclocking over and above the very basics, wouldn't be using SLI or Crossfire either, Processor is an i7 920. System will be used for gaming alone.

Cheers all
will check back in the morn for best answer

I'm an Asus man .... great performers and good history with them but due as much to the fact that I have built many boxes in a row w/ them and i know the TS procedures and am used to the BIOS's.

Thanks for the input any particular model that you would recomend, i know there are a few models of the P6T which is the series within my budget, what is the best from the series?

much appreciated
