ugh...im having a hard time deciding. I'm having second thoughts about the DS3R comparing to the OC of the Deluxe or even the DFI. I want to be pushing 450-470 on air, so which board could possibly do it without a hitch (given that my chip is not the issue)?

Do people really have LAN parties with the DFI LAN Party? I smell a marketing gimmick.

I'd go with the DS3R, everything I've heard about it makes me believe it is a solid board for quads.

Honestly this is just me but I'd go with the DFI, but I have an affinity for DFI for some reason.

The P5Q would be nice as well and the Gigabyte, that's also the order I would buy them in.

But that's just me. Any of those will be a good choice really, especially price/performance and wanting a P45 chipset.

Ha. My rig isn't going to any LAN parties. I have to move it with a hand truck. (OK, maybe not...)
