Currently running a MSI 975x Powered Up board and it has to be the greatest piece of crap I have ever bought...major cold boot probs takes a couple of power on/offs and resets before you will even get a picture. Its now got to the stage where if I don't change the board I might kick the board and end up wrecking the chip, xfi, etc... so either the Intel Bad Axe2 or one of the Nforce boards....would be looking to use it with my X1900XT(HIS) 2 gig OCZPC6400 and a XM X-Fi....other PC in the house is based on a Intel m-ATX 965 board and while you can't clock it one bit it never gives trouble. Have had a MSI board before that never gave trouble but will never buy anything from them again...not really after x-fire or SLI so choice of board not limited by that just want something that will come on without having to reset/power on and off all the time....this is at stock or overclocked settings and currently running bios 7.3 but have always been a prob.
