I'm actually looking at the Abit AW9D-MAX, from what I've seen it looks nice, and Abit seems a bit more enthusiastic about getting back into the overclocking/enthusiast market for real this time. The layout for extreme cooling isn't so great, but I also like the gap between the two 16x slots.

Coolaler did some testing on it, http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=113633 . I can only hope as I loved the socket A and Socket 478 boards Abit put out, and I've been sitting on a E6600 for awhile looking at a bunch of quirky and not so hot boards.
