YUMMIE!

[DOM]

So what should I do ?

Get a ASUS Maximus V Gene Z77 or wait for the Extreme?

My gig mb crapped out and I need a mb to bench now cuz I moved my other gene z z68 to my gamer/main rig....

[Splave]

hard to say dom, I would go ASUS or MSI because we can get good support either way atleast software wise. its nice to have shammy in your corner too though. maybe too soon to tell which asus board

[DOM]

Well I know I'm never getting another gigabyte... This is the 2nd time its done this for no reason

And I never used a msi before just been asus and gigabyte mb's

But then I saw this this moring Open Box: ASUS Maximus IV Extreme-Z

I wanted to get a z77 and 3770k when they come out.... but is it just the cpu or mb that let's the 3rd gen ivy get high mem oc.....

[DOM]

im thinking the MSI Z77A-GD65 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813130643

Youll love the MSI board!

My P67 MSI is a great board!

On a personal note:
I'll be moving to my Sandy Bridge E in the next two weeks as I have the board and the memory, gonna sell a few things then pick up a new CPU
