Recently I was playing around with my old Core 2 Duo E8400 & I killed the MB by going a bit overboard tightening the heatsink.
The Gigabyre GA-EP45T-UD3P was a great board when I used it as my gaming machine. Having the P45 chipset, w/ DDR3, & dual PCIe slots. So I was trying to find another P45 based board with DDR3 support, but I haven't had much luck. Even on ebay.

I had been hoping to setup this system with both of my old HD6870s once I replaced them.

I recently got intel dg35ec mobo from ebay. But I see that you already looked there.

I typically use http://3btech.net/, though availability can be spotty on older products. Currently I only see a P43-based board with DDR3 and a single PCIe slot.
