i am beginning to rethink my previous selection of the asus striker II extreme. I need help deciding on alternatives. on paper the Striker II looks great, but i think it might be too buggy for my experience level. this is taking me forever to put things together because the only days i have to do this are my post call days when i'm shot and sleeping all day.
i like asus, i was happy with my prior asus mobo but is this mobo a swing and a miss?
i would really like the 790i setup with tri-sli compatibility and i really like the wc nb. not that i can't do it on my own after market, but its nice
need some guidance. my other options are the EVGA and XFX. i am pretty sold on the 790i ultra setup

little side-note:
one last question, what is the deal with the asus costing ~$100 more then the other 2?
so i called asus and asked what the deal was, why are they are so much more expensive. WOW useless response! they couldn't justify the price. the response i had was that i would have to look up the differences and justify the cost difference myself. you would think they would have an interest in saying our product has this, this, this and we do this... for our customers that the other guys don't. but no... apparently it is company policy not to talk about their competitors, which is fine i guess. even if you don't want to talk bad about them, you should at least say why yours is better, no? do you ever wonder who comes up with these policies?
