ASUS Board recommendation please
I need a recommendation for a new MB. I have always had great luck
with ASUS so I want to stay with them. I use it for web browsing, a few (non powerhouse) games, USENET, mail, Office Suite applications and education. A homeowner based home floorplan program for renovation. Main use is Adobe Photoshop Elements for photo correction, and manipulation, then storage. I have been thinking about the Sabertooth Z77 board with 16 GB of memory. I am not an overclocker, I just put them together, and use them the way they are with default settings. To stay current, I do want to use the i7 Ivy Bridge device. Once together I run the machine for about 5 years and then build another. Suggestions? Comments? Thanks in advance. |

And TBH, at this point in time Intel has a superior part. (I've used both in the past and have no fanboy preference.) |
