I'm waiting on upgrading my CPU/mobo because I'm unable to find a 1155 base chipset that has enough of the features of this 1366 board:

# 1 feature I'm looking for is a decent RAID controller.
# 2 feature a good onboard LAN/Net card


1.So are there any 1155 chipsets that offer the same(or better) Marvell ...1982 controller?
2. If not should I just wait for the x79s to come out? or is there a reasonably priced hardware alternative PCI-e controller that someone would recommend for a Sandybridge build?

P.S. I also have a 6990+6970 tri-fire setup so enough PCI-e lanes are a must.

TY!:)
 
What kind of RAID do you want, and what is special about this mobo's RAID ?

What is special about that ethernet controller ?

The problem with a PCIe controller is that you don't have enough PCIe lanes already.

If you can wait for X79 then you should, personally I just had to buy a new 1366 mobo because my old one died on me, and it was annoying to buy "old" tech, but at least I found it cheap on eBay, for a top of the line card (pretty much the same as yours, but in MSI flavor : X58 XPower Big Bang).
 
From my research the features this Gigabyte 1366 mobo offers are the best performing.

the more I research the more I'm thinking I should just wait. : /
