What is the cheapest but reliable P55 mobo? Basically the "bang for buck" of the P55 mobos which can do stable OC.
 
I wish the price difference of Gigabyte was not that high here in the Philippines. The Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3R cost PHP 9700 = USD 203.61 its only USD 139.99 in Newegg while the Asus P7P55D LE cost PHP 7810 = USD 163.94 in Newegg its 134.99. I don't know why the Gigabyte boards have high price difference here, It costs more than the EVGA P55 LE which is costs more in Newegg.
 
supply and demand and the fact that companies can get away with it.. its the same way pretty much every where outside of the US.. europe you add 5-10% to the cost of what we pay in the US.. even asia isnt safe from the high prices and everything is produced there..

best option is to find some one on an american military base around you and have them order it from newegg.. they get american prices and decent shipping costs..
 
IIRC, there are no more bases in the pi. You can't go wrong with Asus, btw. Got a site we can price check with for pi (r)etailers?
 
Should have specified your country of origin or the assumption is that you're US based ..

Any Gigabytes or ASUS boards are reliable, choice of board however depends on what features you want out of it.
 
Sorry about not specifying my country. A website you can look at is www.tipidpc.com <- our ebay for computer needs.

The P55 boards I see around here are the following:
Asrock P55M Pro - PHP 5300 = USD 92
ECS P55H-A - PHP 6600 = USD 115
MSI P55-CD53 - PHP 7050 = USD 122
Asus P7P55D LE - PHP 7810 = USD 164
Asus P7P55D - PHP 8660 = USD 150
MSI P55-GD65 - PHP 9050 = USD 190
EVGA P55 LE - PHP 9250 = USD 194
Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3R - PHP 9700 = USD 204

Don't need much so much extra features.
