Agree, anyone with a 3770K, is not going to care about on-chip graphics...Although that displayport jack on the back of the mobo could be used for a small System Monitoring LED display, hmmmm what a great idea...

I was hesitating between SB-E and IB, but now I'm hesitating between SB and IB lmao


what to do

I just can't wait for the mATX motherboards from the "Media series". I quit standard ATX . My needs are far less than it can provide. Hope they make a mini_ITX board as well.

Intel i7 3770K OC'd to 5.0Ghz and Asus Maximus 5 Extreme with thunderbolt, that's what to do!

IB will probably have better performance and the power consumption will be much lower, and the OC potential much higher. Also, SB-E is so much more expensive, and with the new Intel road map, IB-E is way too far away
