    Had a quick look, they're not too many X48 boards out there.

    However there are a few P45s, any of which will suit your needs:

    which out of these would be the most stable and hassle free.

    It can not save BIOS settings. (I tried changing battery.)

    It cant handle all 4 of my OCZ Ram. (It needs to be set to more than 1.9v, and as it cant save setting, i need to turn it on with 3 sticks, change voltage, turn it off, but keep power on, and put the 4th stick in.)

    It does not recognize any optical drives (SATA or IDE) (Does not even show in bios, if it does, then while in windows it will disappear in 3 mins)

    It crashes with blue screens while gaming. (just started 2 days ago)
