Hiya people,
Don't post in this section often but need some advice.
Have just had a few PCs die at the same time, all running Asus P5B Deluxe boards, one taken out by a faulty PSU the others will only boot if you reset the BIOS and even then they turn off after ~15 seconds. Have done plenty of testing an am 90% sure it is the motherboard, what reliable boards are out there which have 2 LAN and 3 PCI slots? Could settle for 3 PCI and a PCI-E NIC if need be but i has to be Socket 775 as that's the CPUs that are available.
Have looked at the P5Q SE2 but am slightly put off as it doesn't have much in the way of heatsinks and these machines will be running at 100% for around 12 hours a day so the more resilient they are the better.
