Thank you for the responses

You've both confirmed what I was thinking--good boards with less bells and whistles. Fewer BIOS options can be a good thing with some customers

.
I prefer boards without integrated graphics myself--why pay for a chip I'll never use. I'm not too concerned with being limited to DDR2 1066 in this case. I seldom buy leading edge gear unless it's a specific customer request. Nice to keep the cost down and still build a rig that can run anything I throw at it.
Thanks Again!
