as the title says, Im trying to decide which mobo to go with. I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new I7 build, and Im just trying to finalize which specific parts Im gonna go with.
Im trying to decide between the following:
EVGA x58 second EVGA x58 (I have no idea what the difference is between the 2, as there is none, that I can readily see.)
ASUS P6T Deluxe V2
DFI LP UT X58-T3eH8
all of them look like great boards, but I wanted to ask all of your personal preferences. Im kinda of leaning towards the DFI for the board itself, but I like the fact that I can just run down the street and grab one of the others. Any thoughts or suggestions? Your comments will be taken into strong consideration. I hold the opinions of this forums members in much higher regard than any review sites I might come across. And yes, your statements will most likely determine which one I get, since I may be leaning towards the DFI, but thats a very subtle lean... like maybe a 2 degree variation from vertical type lean.
EDIT: and just to point out, I really dont see any usable benefit of going with the ASUS Rampage II Extreme over any of these others (for myself) that merits the "Extreme" price tag, so even though Im looking for the best (and its all relative), I think im gonna stay with one of these 3 (or 4, if someone can tell me what the $20 difference is between the 2 EVGA boards).
on a side note, this board looks soooo sexeh. especially in this case. im Tempted to spend the extra $100 just because it looks sooo damn good, but then that would be hypocritical of me, so I think I will refrain.
