79
I need a X79 motherboard that is a very very good overclocker money is not a issue but at the same time I don't need a expensive board that doesn't overclock well.
 
Uses of system, RAM, Cooling, Graphics etc etc

I love these questions I want a board that clocks well no reference to anything else.

RIVE is the best overclocking X79 board.

It will get the best out of the silicon you put in it!!!!

Seems amazing, but has an annoying little fan on the chipset heatsink (which spins up and down from looking at a youtube video) its certainly packed to the gills with features.

Another great alternative is one of the Gigabyte boards, which even on the lower UD4 smashed some records in December - http://gigabytedaily.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/hicookie-smashes-core-i7-3930x-world.html

Obviously most of it comes down to the actual chip overclock'ability.

RIVE Andre Yang holds several 3D records with this board and quad graphics cards.

I actually have two top five records Wprime 32mb and Super Pi 32mb with this board and 3930K!!!
