EVGA has just come out with a interesting board that looks to offer everything under the sun, but at a price of around $450................. Wink

Pretty much any of the current X58 boards are and good, it's all in what you're looking for in options and what you plan on doing with the thing.......... Wink

I finally ordered one to go with the rest of the gear I have sitting around... Definitely didn't get the best, but I am hoping it is temporary.

Got a GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD3R from SuperBiiz. $173.99 - no rebate, no tax, no shipping. Should get the job done, has decent reviews, and hopefully will be a step toward a higher end board later.

I know some folks that use the same board and they're extremely pleased with it so far................... Wink

Good choice as it now supports SLI with a bios update.

I'd be willing to bet that most all (if not all) X58 boards will support both SLi and CrossFire in the near future. Nvidia is in need of the cash flow don't ya know............... Wink
