Well title says it all really, current rig is in the sig. Budget would be about €100. I really liked my current mobo because of the dual BIOS feature and the symmetrical PCI slots (I'm pretty OCD)

Out of curiosity, why do you need a new motherboard?

Oh, that should've been in the original post.

Also your PSU and Motherboard should still be under warranty for at least 3 more years on the motherboard and 5 more on the PSU.

that has nothing to do with the OP. I've talked about this on another thread. If you could just help me find a mobo that'd be greatly appreciated

Yeah, but wouldn't it be simplest to just return the motherboard and get another one since you liked it so much?

I just wanted to keep my options open, see if there's anything that's potentially better. I might be able to RMA it but just incase I can't I want to be able to buy one immediately
