Hello,
1st post after lots of lurking....
I'm suffering from analysis paralysis in choosing a mobo for a 64 bit Linux box I'm building.
I was going to go for a gigabyte x48 dq6 to run a Q6600 based system. I dont do games but I do a lot of image editing and cataloguing and the rest of the system is based on raid 1 750gb HDDs plus 2 smaller HDD to run dual boot XP Pro 32 and 64 bit Linux. It has been suggested that the x48 is overspecced if I dont game and then the new P43/45 boards came out and now i'm lost!
All opinions and thoughts appreciated.
Cheers
