I would reconsider buying Asus if I were you. Not that Asus is extremely bad, it's just that they are always the first on the market with new models of new chipsets, and those models are usually awful. After the first few months, Asus then (quietly) revises the hardware a couple of times, after which the boards usually end up to be pretty good. Just make sure not to buy one of the first boards of any new Asus series. The fallout rate of those is immense.

I've made that mistake a couple of times now already, and every time if felt like an Asus beta tester...

I've switched to Gigabyte a couple of generations ago, and haven't regretted it (yet? )
