I have an extra slim here with your name on it that I won't be using in the foreseeable future.

Just say the word, bro.

Most of the torrenting I did was for films that we have (but are at home as the family didn't want me taking them all)
Or TV shows that are on in the US (so either I can watch them early, or just watch them at all if they aren't going to be shown in the UK)

Maybe I am older, and remember different... So see their current boards differently.. but

Gigabyte was always, they got a name because their boards overclocked very well and they were a budget board company. OCers got into it, and prices wnet up. Took a while (and a lot of RMAs I am sure) and now their boards are priced higher than better boards. I always joke (because I have seen it).. " Gigabyte makes a great board, I can't wait till mine comes back from RMA." Failure is a failure. Prices go up when your shit sucks no matter how good your customer service is.

ASUS (as much as I hate them) does produce awesome boards. Largest in the world and so lot of complaints.Customer servie on the low levels is stupid, website is incompatible with IE/opera on Windows 7... but works fine on both in XP. IME. Good company but gotta know whic hare good purchases. which means waiting.

EVGA (indifferent to them) best clockers lately, historically they are a crap company. There are a gigabyte at best. Will see when p67 classy comes out (I think I get to review one!) Looking forward to it tbh, because I bet the board will be a cool running one. (ASUS targets EVGA specifically as using over sized unnecessary heatsinks, but when Ocing on x58 I found the opposite (duh) ))

What are we left with.. MSI? They were big at producing HP boards. I have seen your guys results with them, granted I am not on some of your levels, quality and feature wise, but you guys are having mem issues with them, which considering they are all on IMCs, has to do with Vdimm pahses and/or interconnects.

Foxconn might be the largest PC company in the world, but motherboard wise they make apple products. Need I say more?

Maybe there are other companies, I cant think of any though. And that is a shame.

PCIE risers/extenders. But you still have to get creative with the usually rigid tri-SLI bridge.
