Motherboard choice for Core 2 Quad
Hi,
I am going for a new desktop with core 2 quad.
Decided on core 2 quad Q6600 for processor.
Heard that Intel DG45ID board is not that good.
Asus P5E-VM HDMI board seems to have heat issues.
Not able to decide.
Please suggest suitable board for Q6600.

Re: Motherboard choice for Core 2 Quad
A P965 or P35 or 650i chipset board would be good choices. Something like the Gigabyte P965-DS3 or P35-DS3L/R would be fine. Also take a look at the MSI 650i SLI-FI or EVGA 650i Ultra.

Intel P45 chipset is based on the 45nm technology it's a lot better for overclocking.
ASUS P5K-E or Deluxe Gigabyte, Abit IP35 Pro or even the base model is Good.
