I am using a Gigbyte mobo....gives a very good performance but it is not the best one around....If I was you I would have waited a bit more for the Asus board coming with n-Force chipsets..........its got a gfx card of G-Force 2.........dolby Digital sound card..........Builtin Lan card.........what else do U need........but on the other side........VIA has got good reliability.......and we have got trust in it......go for it if you can't wait.......!
