by the time formula is released Intel is going to be out of business

About the same as it would be on any other mobo when using an integrated Realtek codec. The SupremeFX is nothing more than a Creative software layer to go with a Realtek ALC892 chip.

Hmmm. Anyone know if SupremeFX can be downloaded, installed, and successfully used on a non Gene board, like my Sabertooth?

Why dont you download it and see? I know when I installed the software for it I had to activate it.

Its great. I had the creative xtreme music. The onboard is better. Plus there is a PCI express slot if you REALLY want a sound card but I cant complain about how my jazz sounds on it.

I really don't a price range but I would say I'm into affordable mid-range boards. I won't be overclocking.

Then go with either the Asrock extreme 4 or any of the lower Asus Z77 boards. I know your not overclocking but these boards are mid-range and offer a great set of features at a awesome price. Also if you do decide to overclock they can. Its kinda hard to get a quality board that cant overclock to some extent.
 
Biostar TZ77XE4 because it has great VRMs and can OC. The matte black pcb looks sick as well. Also I am poor so a great overclocking board under $150 with features found in 200+ boards is the definite choice.

He's not joking - there are patched versions that work with any Realtek onboard codec (not just the ALC892); amusingly, the patched version let's it work with Creative's discrete sound cards, as well (there *are* some options that Creative's discrete audio software - even that for the new SoundCore-powered models, lacks compared to the MB2 software).

Shoot, I'm going to have to find a patched version, then. I DL'd the one off Asus's site, and it was a no-go.

I am about get the P8Z77-V or PRO how good is the Wifi on these boards?

Supports everything except 5 GHz (high-bandwidth) N - if you use the Intel PHY to connect to your router, WiFi-GO lets your PC double as a wireless repeater/streaming media server. In my case, it is the wireless connectivity that I need (when I move my PC to my bedroom and connect to the FPTV in there).
