I have, yet another 965 on the way in, sweet chips.
what board to go with?

had one of these, great board for a 965, will get me all I'll ever get from the lump.

never had one of these but seems more for an fx 4 or 6 core to me, a bit more overkill than I need.

have had one or two of these, way big overkill, basicly a baby chv-f.
what would you pick and why?
I have pretty much made up my mind and I'm not going to tell you till the end, just try to sway me your way.
money's no issue, niether is gear, I have enough to do what the chip will do.
the use??? just bsing around, benching for grins and giggles, a 965 is, to my mind , one of the best toys to have in your toy box that will also purr like a little kitty when you just want to surf.
