Planning to build my first gaming rig with the E6600 and 8800 GTS 640k.
I don't intend to overclock or run SLI (though who knows what i might do in a year or two).
Here's the mb's i am considering:
evga 680i - i saw good reviews about this, but is the 680i only better than the 650i because of SLI ? Then there is Evga's lifetime warranty to consider. However it only takes DDR2. I also hear evga is better than asus (asus getting sloppy is what i read).
GIGABYTE GA-P35C-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard

The reason I like this Gigabyte MB is because it will support DDR3 and it also has the P35 chipset.
I would greatly appreciate some advice/suggestions/recommendations!
(My case will be the Antec 900 if that matters any.)
