Hi,
I need some advices on mobo for my first build after apr price cut. Right now, I am deciding between ASUS P5N32-E SLI PLUS and EVGA 680i. But I am open to other ideas.
I plan to use E6600 and Thermalright ultra-120 with the board. Does ultra-120 automatically eliminate evga 680i board since the backplate has issues fitting without modification even with latest revision, and the heatsink will probably overhang the board too much which is a problem for the case with inverted board design, like Lian-Li V2100 (I am planning getting this case)? On the other hand, P5N32-E SLI PLUS has nicer board layout, it seems it won't have the issues above, but I cannot find a definite answer to it.
I would really appreciate if anyone with similar setup can post a picture or two.
Thanks
