Yeah i havent been following the motherboard arena lately.. damn there is nothing new.. Even the DFI series is lacking on newegg..  I would normally recommend DFI.. but there is nothing to really recommend at this time..

You really can't go wrong with ASUS.  They by far are one of the most popular boards and for good reason....SUPPORT.  You can count on them quickly addressing issues that arise.  I have a A8N-SLI D and I love it.
