Hi Guys,
My name is Arpit, I'm plannig to buy a new MOTHERBOARD for my computer.
The configuration of my PC is
Samsung DVD
PowerColor PCS & HD4890 1GB GDDR5
Dell SP2309W 23-inch Monitor
Corsair TW3X4G-1600C9DHX 4GB Kit
Creative Labs SBS A300 2.1
Coolermaster CM 690 PURE Black Cabinet
Logitech MX 518 Optical Mouse
Corsair Corsair TX650W Power Supply
Intel Core i7 Processor i7-920
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200.12 SATA
RED BOX - KB279 Keyboard
Coolermaster Hyper TX3 CPU cooler.

I'm looking forward to buy a X58 chipset.
I wanted to know which motherboard is better Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7 or Asus P6X58D Premium LGA 1366....
If there are any other changes I should make please SUGGEST

Thank You.
 
^^^ if you consider after sales service of asus, its offered by RASHI which has developed a very bad reputation these days.. so i would suggest you to go for gigabyte one as it is offered by accell frontline which is way more better than RASHI!!!
 
Have you already bought the rest of the components? What is the use for this system? Point of getting an expensive board? What happened to the previous motherboard?
 
No, I haven't bought those components...........
I'll use this system for GAMING, watching HD movies and downloading stuff from the net
I'm buying such an expensive board because 'I am futureproof'
I dont think for the next 2 or 3 years I will change any components if I buy one now........that is why I need the latest technology.......
My previous motherboard was Pentium 4...it doesn't even support Serial ATA
 
^ Why don't you use a Template & ask some GURU's here to set up a Config for you by mentioning your Budget & Needs...

Recently i saw a thread where a guyz Gigabyte motherboard was Declared as warranty void coz it was a bit bend..

so, i can't say anything about the after sales support..

But choosing from the above two i'll say GIGABYTE..

Your choice- make one. Either you can act like a stubborn little brat, spend all that money for no reason like an idiot (we have few samples over here and most of them regretted) and pacify yourself using the word "futureproof" or you wise up, edit your first comments and use the damn template for your own good to prevent any misunderstanding, save money and still get a system that will entertain you for for 3 years average. If you are not so keen on getting a proper advice, what's the point in even asking advices from a proper tech community. If you want, we have TDF's highly decorated bottleneck gang who will pacify and justify to spend that money on the board. No pun intended, but that's what they usually do.

By your first comments, its pretty obvious you are not in sync with how current technology works. If you not, we can help you. If you don't want, your money, your life and your wish. Again, wise up, use the damn template. For you needs, even an i5+ UD2 is more than enough. You still end up saving lot of money which can be used to buy something else- or just save it. As it is pretty odd to see people who want to see movies and play games, but ending up getting crappy speakers.

u need to buy the whole rig in 70K rt?
if that is the case u'll never be able to get the X58A UD7 or P6X58D Premium.
these mobos alone wud cost upwards of 20k.
also using dual ch ram on LGA1366 makes no sense when it supports triple ch.

The config suggested by The Sorcerer is gud.U can go with it, else if u want a better card like 5850 the u can get a PII X4 955BE and a 785G mobo (combo sud be bout 12-14k at max afaik).
