Ok great

What would your recommendation be between P67 and Z68? I will be using my computer for everything, editing videos/photos/music, watching tv/movies, general internet stuff and gaming.

As it looks, it's between:

P67: Asus P8P67 Pro, Sabertooth P67 and Asrock P67 Extreme 4
Z68: Asus P8Z68, Asus P8Z68 Pro and Asrock Z68 Extreme 4.

Z68, speeds up transcoding for the video editing.

IMO, I'd take the higher temperatures and such for having the iGPU if my video card ever fries.
