... UPS F'ed up my Biostar P43's delivery, so I am RMAing it and I have decided to get a new mother board. I will put out a litle more money this time for FedEx shipping and I've decided to get a mobo with the ICH10R south bridge. I was thinking the ASUS P5QL-E looked nice what do you guy's think would be good for a new mobo.

Out of the Boards that have the southbridge as ICH10R I would grab the Asus P5Q- Pro It's a great ocing board and one of my favorites for P45 boards..

The PQ5 Pro is nice but is it realy worth the $40 more then the one I listed. I don't think I will need most of it features. I will never CrossFire, all I want to do is Overclock and Hace RAID onboard.

Well, if you don't think you will go cross fire... I'd get its little brother. The Asus P5Q... It has raid of 0-1-5-10 and still a nice ocer... But, I would still go with the Pro because there is good help on this forum with that board, and even if you don't think your going Cross fire now... You never know about the future...
