views on the MSI X58A-GD65

[413x]

I will be looking for a new motherboard when the new g3 intel ssds come out [i know it may be next year tho]

i have looked at the asus P6X58D-E and the gigabyte ga-x58a-ud3r but i keep coming back to the MSi

it seems gigabyte and asus are fvastly more popular but does anyone have any views on the above? i cant find many reviews, it seems relatively new out.

[i require sata 3 and usb 3]

This review shows its a pretty good board.

As you say, its pretty new so not many people will have them to give opinions.

The reason people haven't been going with MSI X58 boards in the past is because their onboard cooling was often not very good. Because of this, I would still recommend either the ASUS or Gigabyte boards you mention as they have been tried and tested and known to be solid.

if cooling is still an issue with this manufacturer i will have to go with the gigabyte one i suspect, will have to find a few more opinions first tho
