One other thing I should add to the considerations one ought to keep in mind 
when 
buying a motherboard is the quality of the BIOS program.

With the ASUS and ASRock motherboards I have had, I noticed that the BIOS setup 
program was very difficult and ambiguous to understand. I got the impression 
that 
the settings were all poor translations and often left me puzzled.

With the Intel motherboard, I was greeted by a menu composed of very 
professional 
and well-written settings and explanations. I find good and unambiguous use of 
English in the manuals and setup to be a factor worth considering.
