I had a gigabyte EX58-UD5 that was great but I hear it my not be that good for the 2500K .How about Asrock or Evga,I need it to be able to run SLI and be around $150.I was looking at the GIGABYTE GA-Z68XP-UD3 $140

or the EVGA Z68 SLI 130-SB-E685-KR $150

or theASRock P67 EXTREME4 GEN3 $170

I am not sure what would be the best one to go with.I have three GTX 470's but not really wanting to run three of them because of the noise.
