The X58 system is excellent. If you go this route, you should consider getting the ASUS P6X58D Premium motherboard because it is the only ASUS motherboard that is compatible with the new Gulftown six-core processor that Intel will be coming out with in 2010. It also has USB 3.0 ports and SATA 6GB/s capabilities. This will help to future proof your build for a little bit longer.

The cheap ASRock X58 Extreme motherboard has some reliability issues, and I would not recommend it.
