Thinking about mobo upgrade

[Sam DeathWalker]

Ya I don't actually own a sabertooth but looking at the price/spec combo it looks good.

They advertize it as one of their most reliable motherboards ....

Anyway you won't go wrong with the Rampage III either.

I've been taking the Newegg reviews with a grain of salt. Almost seems like 50% of the complaints are made by idiots who have never built a pc before, much less privvy to basic compatibility of components and/or software.

^ everything i've ever bought from new egg (parts to build 4 pc's over the years) monitors and miscellaneous things only had one problem with it all which was a motherboard and i had a replacement shipped to me before the week ended so i usually just go with what i want to get whether the reviews are bad or not. Also of the reviews always seem like people who havent got a clue like buying a powerful gpu and not having a power supply to run it then blaming newegg or the product and down rating it lol

It's a coin toss for motherboards. I've experienced extreme problems with every major mobo manufacturer you can think of.

I typically prefer evga/asus though.

Well, you can usually spot the ones where people had no clue. WHen you get 50-60 people out of 500 reviews all reporting the same exact failures, you have to admit that's enough sample size to cause concern.
