Cracking comment - wish I'd written it

How many comments do you have to read on l'Inq, before you come across a gem like this one I wonder...

X58 ATX intel motherboard pfffff

The X58 is the ONLY mobo for i7 1366 LGA cpu right now......BUT..... They all have problems if you read the 1 egg users comments (list found here) ...

http://i4memory.com/f55/x58-motherboard-real-user-feedback-comments-12649/

It seems like every board is junk with memory problems, lan , bad slots , whole board DOA ,etc. not working or breaking in a few weeks. There is no other choice besides x58 mobo if you have one of these new i7 cpu (which I now have),

But I can't even decide what mobo would be worth a damn. ALL The boards with 5 star rating don't seem to pass the 70% level and those could be people that wrote the comment a day or two after buying/building and now months later could be having problems. So it's a 50/50 guess if the board will be reliable for the long term ????

And what about the new B-3 stepping for x58 intel was supposed to release in April 09 , if this fixes problems how would a person know what boards have this new stepping before buying one ?

You don't see Motherboard manufactures jumping up and down waving the B-3 stepping for sale flag like you do the i7 920 CPU D0 stepping core ads. For a $200.00-300.00 mobo it sure would be NICE to KNOW!

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
