Looking for a decent 680 Mobo

As it is now of the 680i mobos the two I would suggest looking at is the eVGA 680i and the ASUS P5N32-E SLI. Why the eVGA over the other reference boards? eVGA's superior customer support. Why the P5N32-E SLI over the Striker Extreme? Get the same overclocking performance and general stock performance at less cost. I dont know anyone that really needs all the extra bells and whistles of the Striker Extreme. Those extra bells and whistles dont make it run any faster or cooler or clock higher. Just kinda like fluff in some ways. Its way overpriced too. The Striker Extreme seems to be plagued with a few extra problems too at the moment. This is just my opinion at the moment and that could change once better BIOS updates are implemented.
 
Hey thanks, yeah the Striker extreme is like 400 bucks from newegg and it is out of stock, I really do not need a 400 dollar motherboard I will be spending enough money as it is on other things.
so my rig will play out like this
ThermalTake Armor
PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750 or 750quad
E6400 or E6600 It will depend on how the other items play out in my budget
Tt Tuniq Tower
EVGA 122-CK-NF68
2GB XMS2 DDR2 800 or Buffalo Firestiks DDR2 800
Dual EVGA 8800GTS's
