originally used an ECS motherboard. It was very stable but it had little support and was impossible to overclock. Saw the MAX mobo and fell in love with it, very nice. Just added a digital temp gauge to monitor case temps, for £4.99 off ebay - I couldn't resist it lol.

Counterstrike source (settings max, 1280x1024) - 319.79fps
Company of heroes (settings maxed with high detail) - 120.9fps
