    Well I'm still confused on which board to get

    I still like the look of this board though

    Asus P5N32-E SLi nForce 680

    but I was looking at

    Gigabyte GA-965P-DS4, Asus P5B Deluxe and also the Abit AB9 Pro or I have to pay more and get the Evga 680 board which I don't really want to

    Unless you really want to use the SLi I would probably go for the Ab9 or P5B

    Looks like I'm getting a P5B Deluxe as it's got dual lan and 1333 FSB support via a bios update (unless abit sort there boards out)

    Oh and people with a asus board look here for 1333 fsb supported boards

    edit: scratch that I'm looking at the AW9D-MAX now which seems a good board
