I was wondering why do people buy overpriced mainboards,when i say overpriced i mean over 200$. I had an msi board pushing my 8400 for about 3 and a half years. The board costed me 100$,around the best for this price and it ran my cpu at 3,8ghz from first day without a glitch. Atm im runing an asrock pushing my 2500k to 4300 at low volts(to go up i have to get close to 1,4 v and it doesnt make any sense, the extra heat and power...). this costed 150$. So i would think a decend 150-200$ mobo(with crossfire| sli) can overclock extremly well, and has pretty nice features also. Why some people spend 250,300,400 even 500$ on a board that will be absolite in 2,3 years? I could never find justification in buying a mobo that costs as much as a video card,when a cheaper brand mobo cand do the same thing. From what i know a 400$ mobo helps u get 100 to 200 more mhz when overclocking,at least this is what i see in reviews,is this really worth paying double or even tripple the price? Just curios dont need to get flamed here
