I personally prefer the DFI board. But i'll have to recommend the Biostar t-Power i45 or the Gigabyte UD3P

It's all good. But to be honest, the two boards i listed are probably the best lga775 overclocking boards made.

I've never even considered BIOstar all the worth looking at.

I'd just get the UD3P unless you absolutely hate the way it looks. If so then get the ASUS out of those two |

5 second boot time would be amazing...

Asus seems to have a better power grid though as it has the 16-Phase Power and the "Express Gate ~ 5 Secs from Bootup to Online". Now i really don't believe that though, 5 seconds is a bit far fetched in my book. |
