i would get the DFI seems like a much better board.

even though it has 4 stars and the other one has 5? i mean honestly, thanks for your help-im not trying to be rude when i ask this-why do you think it looks better?

well DFI is more well known then epox and either one is a good choice i would take either of them. but PM the_other_one and ask cause i think he got a epox motherboard and he may be able to tell you if he liked it or not.

ya like ckfordy, id go with the DFI. even tho it has four stars mind you that over 1200 people reviewed and some just got a bad board. it happens. Also DFI is a more trusted brand and a good overclocker. im not too sure about the Epox but it looks good but it cost more..

I think The_Other_One was happy with his Epox board, but i'd also go with the DFI. Here's an article comparing these two (and other) boards: http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?id=1598&cid=6&pg=1. It significantly favours the DFI, particularly for overclocking (look at the last two pages).
