I don't recommend the Gigabyte board anymore. Too many people are having RAM voltage issues with it.

My IP35 Pro is solid. It has never gave me any issues. I love Abit<3

Afaik that is only w/ the DDR2/DDR3 hybrid model. I don't recommend any of the hybrid models from any manufacturer.

Agreed on the hybrid issue.. but I also dont recommend the DSR3 to others because of the shoddy northbridge cooler attachment method. I reworked mine but for someone else to pull a matching set of perfect length screws, insulating grommits and non-conductive low profile thumbscrews out of their butt... nahh.

Oh and there's a fan monitor cold boot issue that hits once in a great while... it's one of those things that fixes itself right after you take the motherboard out... grrr.

I Agree,+ DDR3 Ram is still New and thus Verry Expensive and with DDR2 Ram Speeds reaching 1:1 i wont upgrade till maybe 2009-2010.

Im also looking for good P35 Chipset MB, I Read little and I Like the Asus P5K-E
dont have price quote yet but if it in budget its a go.

Also Asus brought out that VDroop Protection Setting in the new P35 Chipset MB's dono if it's any good considering i have Vdroop of 0.04V on my board so lets hope just because its a cheaper board that it isnt as bad..
