Replacement Mobo for 10k

[d6bmg]

sure .. why Intel will use some other lan chip when they can manufacture their own.

BTW, @10.6k Asus P8Z77-V LX is also a good option IMO :

V-LX is cheap z77 board. M or M-pro is better.

I have a p8z77-m and i was easily able to overclock my processor to 4.6. It can and should go further up but i did not try. It's still running at 4.4 @ 1.25v without any problem. I would say it's a very decent mobo for its price tag.

M and M-Pro - both are matx but they have VRM heatsinks which comes handy while OCing and the pricing of P8Z77-M is really very good .. under 10k it's a very nice deal.
