hi guys, i need some advice as to which motherboard to buy for 60 bucks.
basically im torn between this:
Gigabyte GA-EP31-DS3L iP31 - only 50 pounds.
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148802
this:
MSI p43 neo-f
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148024 - good stuff for the price.
and these asus boards:
ASUS p5ql se
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/152576
and:
p5ql pro
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/149274
which do you think is best?
or if you have any alternative suggestions id be interested to hear them.
the NEO-F was my first buy, but ive just RMA's it without even plugging it in because it was damaged in transit. 2 ram modules had had the fasteners broken off :O
but it may be a blessing because the more i read about it, the less i want it. and i cant be bothered for overclocking via jumpers.
right now im leaning for the p5ql se, because the cooling seems a little better and i like my graphics card (8800gt) far away from my sound card as possible (xfi) as when theyre too close i overheat and crash.
thanks for your info.
