I know this sounds corny but since I read the messages about the bracket on Intel platforms, I decided I would stick to AMD.

But, I would prefer a few things on a motherboard. I don't want integrated video. I want a cool-running chipset. I'd prefer ATX instead of microATX. I don't need SLI or Crossfire, I'd rather have the extra slots...

Anyway, I was searching. There are the 780G and 8200 integrated platforms, so I can scratch that. Then the are the 780 SLI. Well, that's not needed. And when I read reviews on a bunch of motherboards on newegg, they either had hot chipsets or boards that caught on fire lol and etc. Anybody out there find something that is ideal? (If that exists anyway.)
