    Question The best mobo for the new e8600/q9650?

    i like the sounds of those asus rog boards and ive been a asus fan for a longtime and used many of their boards

    i generally buy the best board available at the time an get a decent cpu that i can clock the hell out of or underclock when not needed

    i wont be buying these for a good month or two yet to see what the nehalem brings in either better performance for comparable price(doubtfull) or sit back an jump on the price drops when it launches now that the e8600 and q9650 are out now then they will drop a little bit when nehalem lands

    so what you guys reckon is the bestestest board , and am i right in thinking the rog boards support watercooling or something as iv watercooled for about 8 or 9 years and although id like to go with a nice and simple heatsink like the thermalright hr-01 for the cpu

    i must consider the fact that if i overclock and i most defo will that water will probably be best especially if i am going to get a 4870x2 in the future too as i like things quiet and overclocked

    i think iv picked it already i reckon the rampage extreme (price ) will be the board of choice for me ruddy expensive though shoul come down a a good bit when nehalem comes out and the board is more widely available
