ok as most of you know my asus p6x58d premium board died, and well i was wondering if evga has a equivalent board, i bought the asus originally because of some good reviews but ive always been a fan of evga.

i have the core i7 965 xe bloomfield oc= 4.1 GHz
i have a nvidia gtx 260 sc 216 oc = 16% boost on all 3 aspects
1x 60GB ssd
1X 512GB HDD
1X 1Tb HDD
12 GB 1600mhz OCZ ram (2GB X 6)
and a cheapo dvd drive (dont use them too often)

and i have the coolermaster sniper case.

i plan on moving to the gtx 480 with the 260 for dedi physx and water cooling, so lets see what you all suggest.

oh and needs usb 3.0 and sata 6Gb
 
I have always bought asus first. sadly, the last 4 times I have done so, I was dissapointed. Went and bought gigabyte boards each time and every time the last 4 mobos the giga has whoooped the asus when performance is the deciding factor. I would even recommend the x58a -ud3 over the asus
 
whats up with the 6-pin CPU molex, i only have 2 4-piners from my PSU
 
and im retarded i need to learn to count

2 problems with that evga board no usb 3.0/sata 6gb and the PCI-ex doesnt have dual X16 slots for sli and such
