Which mobo for i7 please help

Get this combo...

EVGA 896-P3-1171-AR GeForce GTX 275 Superclocked Edition 896MB 448-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported ... - Retail & EVGA E758-TR 3-Way SLI (x16/x16/x8) LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

Switch your Ram to this... OCZ Platinum 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Low Voltage Desktop Memory Model OCZ3P1600LV6GK - Retail ... the Corsair RAM is overrated... IMO!!, plus the OCZ has better timings and cost less. If you go with the OCZ RAM, get this combo http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?Ite... for a little extra savings.

Lets see if I can help you out.
Imho you should go with the EVGA E758-A1 3-Way SLI mobo, since it has a Lifetime Warranty.

Hope this helps you out some..  

Good suggestions all around. Actually the only real reason I'm putting in my two cents is because of how incredibly similar our two builds are.

My build is literally what you have with some minor changes here and there... That being said, I'm using an ASUS P6T Deluxe mobo.

I haven't had any real problems with it, and I love the bonus features ASUS throws in. Overclocking is a breeze; the board is smart and automatically adjusts various settings and timings to achieve a more stable OC. Though to be fair, I don't really know if EVGA or Gigabyte or others do similar things. The P6T Deluxe has made me a big fan of ASUS though, and they've earned my business until further notice.

than you so much for the quick reply..

OCZ platinum went up to $145.99 on new egg  

This is just $10 cheaper but it's just as good:

Or combo the Plats...

See that, the Egg must be running low of OCZ am stock since alot of people ate buying them. Also with the OCZ Flex you posted, you do not that you might lose the usage of the 1st ram slot near the CPU when using an aftermarket CPU Cooler.

Here is another good OCZ ram kit you might want to look at but is Cas 8.
