Alright so I'm looking for a new Mobo for a new build and need some advice as I can't decide which one to get. Right now I'm leaning towards ASUS but am open to opinions. The 2 that I am currently deciding between are as follows:

ASUS P6X58D Premium

ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer "Ultimate Gamer"

Sorry about asking this, but is there any reason why you're picking uber-expensive boards?

imo both of those boards are good overlockers and the p6t7 is a high end board, may i ask is you are going to crossfire or sli, also look at this

Well I'm big time into overclocking. Both of these boards have been brought up to me as great overclockers. The reason that i really like the Premium board is because of the future proofing with the USB 3.0 and SATA 6.0. As for the Mobo's that have been suggested, the Foxconn looks interesting. I have never have a Foxconn board so am a little timid. Do you know anything about them? have you used their products in the past? In the past i have only used ASUS and EVGA, both have served me very well. By the way, any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Well no doubt, but I don't like to say too much on things I have not had 1st hand experience with. I have gotten to play with the P6T7 and thought it was fantastic. Not to say the Premium isn't, I just never had 1st hand experience with it.
