Hard OCP Takes this new Motherboard from Gigabyte through the mill - read up if you are considering a new system. It should be in your short list for I7 Motherboards.

GIGABYTE did a marvelous job in designing and implementing the EX58-Extreme board. The board itself has a very accessible layout with no severely tight spots on the board. The heat pipe was well designed, working more than adequately to remove heat using either the water block or the Hybrid Silent Pipe 2 air based cooling mechanism. The board’s performance speaks for itself, with its stock and overclocking matching or exceeding that of other i7 board’s I’ve encountered.
