MSI 975X Platinum

Deciding to get this instead of the Asus P5B-Deluxe.

Anyone got this board? Reviews look promising..

i would still go for the P5B, possibly the best Conroe board out there!

MSI has crossfire support (which i will use eventually) and the Asus doesn't have SLi or Crossfire. Also, the P5B utilizes the 965 chipset, wheras the MSI utilizes the 975.

yep, but i still would go Asus (975X) or wait for an ABit AW9-D MAX, as its so far looking f00king brilliant

MSI and DFI are the only boards that utilize crossfire
