I have a friend who has a wholesale price connection for parts and I'm looking to spend somewhere in the ballpark of $1200. I talked to Nixon who recommended the following. Re the motherboard. Recommended was an Asus with 600 series north bridge. Review what I have listed and give me a recommendation on the mobo?
