Title: Which motherboard?
Post by: jigsaw on February 13, 2006, 10:08:09 AM

Working out the plans for a new system and have most everything figured out except which of these three motherboards to use. If anyone is familiar with them, input would be appreciated.

ASUS P5N32-SLI 195.50  http://tinyurl.com/733qg
ABIT AW8-MAX    206.00  http://tinyurl.com/7w9mh
ASUS P5LD2        152.50  http://tinyurl.com/8dt4y

Box will mainly be for gaming and heavy Photoshoping.

If it has to be one of those three, I'd go with the first one.  Asus seems to have most of their quality issues in hand right now, whereas Abit seems to be losing control of theirs.  I've read alot of bad reviews on Abit recently.  Shame too, I used to like their stuff.

Have a recommendation for one that's not listed?

Is there an Intel based version?
