Which motherbaord is the best?

PC eye · 11-04-2007, 07:18 AM

AMD's quick take on Intel's quad core models was the dual cpu FX-74 configuration putting two dual core models together on one board. That is how they tried to keep up with Intel's own progress made with the Core 2 Duos, extremes, and later quad core models as far as slacking off in the gaming arena.

AMD held a good lead over Intel for the longest time as many already know. The older models by AMD performed more work in one clock cycle while Intel was paying more attention to clock speeds. That's where they slumped and AMD held the edge!

Thanks that's sweet.

Coming back to motherboards, I would like opinions/comparisons for the boards I mentioned (or other you may suggest) that will support the Q6600. Thanks.

Oh ya? I'll keep that in mind. What did you like about it? Good looks? Stable? Not ram picky?

EDIT: Oh wait did you say you CANT say you like it?

Yah i dont like it at all. For one the northbridge heatsink is not secure at all, it wobbles if you touch it, but the reason i wouldnt buy it is because i found that over clocking with the board is confusing, bad and didnt give any stable results. (E6420 and corsair dominator ram)

Id go with a gigabyte P35 DS3

That will lie on the type of build,personerlly,I like ASUS P5N-E more.

The Build is purely for gaming. See this thread if you want details.

And thanks for the input.
