    I have the fatality motherboard and its not bad, but you might be better off with the other you have suggested. The fatality is not a great overclocker - if that's what your looking at doing.

    Question 1, will you be going sli in the future if not Quad gt all the way.

    Question 2, will you be overclocking if yes Quad gt all the way again.

    As you can tell I'm bias, the quad gt is a great board all round and hasnt missed a beat yet with me (E6400 @ 450x8 @ 1.43v)
