Which 815 Mobo out there has the most/best configuration options?? I need your guys help to get the best 815 mobo out there. I was looking at the ASUS CUSL2-C, Abit SH6, and the Microstar 815e PRO.

}> Thanx Ya'll }>
 
Cut up version? The only difference is that the on-board video was disabled on the chip in the CUSL2-C version. I don't know if the official EP chip has been shipping.

My only complaint with the CUSL2 or 2-C is that you can't select 100/133/33.
 
Tachyon, that's one of my only complaints about this board as well. Tach is also correct about the -C revision as well. The CUSL2-C is only different by a few things; 1.) No onboard video/sound, 2.) No AGP 4x/PRO slot - only 4x, 3.) perhaps a different chipset in newer -C's. From what I've heard, the CUSL2 and CUSL2-C have identical benchmark scores.

My only real complaint about this board is the Vcore problem when extreme overclocking comes into play.
 
Another vote for the Cusl2. It is extremely stable. But pass on the I - Panel option, There have been reports that it does not play well with other devices. As it is an add on accessory this will not be a big deal unless you read the literature and think it is cool.
 
Go for the CUSL2-C the best i have had so far!! My sys has seen many boards but this is the best.
