Well I'm upgrading to a core 2 duo setup and am having trouble picking a board... I'm stuck between two right now because of their good price and am asking which one is the better buy. Thank you in advance.

Its between

Just want to say I love your username.

Let me know what you go with. I'm currently shopping for a new mobo and processor.

I would get the gigabyte board, unless you need sli. Sli will only give you about a 25% performance boost, but you'll need a high end power supply, better case cooling, and spend twice as much on video cards. The p35 will definately support penryn cpus; the 680 may not.

wait a mintute , it was because of Opera :d
well its simple, if u want SLI, go for the XFX one, if u dont want SLI, then go with the GIGABYTE one
