EVGA 132-YW-E179-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 790i SLI FTW ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
Cons:Unstable sometimes

Pros:Fast, looks great, a lot's stuff to play with
Comment:
Well, I have 2 system build with EVGA main board. This mother board is nothing like 780i which is more stable for me. It doesn't have any BIOS update  just yet. I am not pretty sure about now. But it's cheaper then most SLI mother board. That's why I chose this board. Own it for 2 month or more. Fist week was painful. But now I am loving it. Got watercooling with this board works like a magic. Be caution, if you want a plug in and go mobo... don't chose this...

Cons:Can be unstable if your unlucky. I had to RMA my first board but my second works flawlessly.

Pros:Many great overclocking features, lots of expansion, 3-way sli support, DDR3
Comment:
The first board i got was DOA, It had a bad IDE controller. Now that i've got my second one it works perfectly and performs VERY well. Well worth the money.
