What are the differences in all those boards? Just little features and whatnot? I want an Asus Sandybridge board with a decent amount of usb ports for under 150 bucks. I don't need a lot of extra features my build will be pretty simple (1 gpu, nothing crazy) so a cheaper board will be fine. Help?

Thanks!

Found the site searching for the MB, Tiger Direct and Newegg like you say did not have any sandy bridge compatible MB's in stock that I could see. CentralComputers out of Cal Looks legit to me, guess I will find out. I know that they ship quick, I ordered it this morning and got a ups confirmation number tonight.

Yea, looks like there are a few variants of the Asus P8P67's. This one looked like it had everything I needed on it http://www.centralcomputers.com/comm...=1299810089640 , does not matter to me how many usb ports it has though, I have a 10 port usb hub for that. I liked that it was Nvidia/sli and ati/crossfire compatible so I am not restricted to one or the other down the road. And it was under $150.

Is it possible to just swap out your old Mobo and CPU and put in a new set without any issues... im talking about comparability with the OS on the Harddrive... or will i have to wipe my HD and reinstall everything all over again?

Yea no doubt, be a small miracle to get away with doing that without having some kind of issues. I hate to start over too but want to be sure I have a good clean install with my new hardware.
