at the moment im using the rig in my sig.

im looking to upgrade my motherboard without changing cpu, graphics card and memory. My memory is currently not compatible and my current mobo doesn't seem to support more than 2gb chips. I also have no need for overclocking. i dont know how and prefer guaranteed stability.

The asus crosshair IV is my guide so i obviously looked at the crosshair 5.

my question is:-

- What motherboard would you suggest at the same level as the crosshair 5?
