    Alright, so i've been going back and forth on whether or not i should get a core i5, or a core i7. i really like the core i5's, and i think they're a good deal with pretty much the same performance at a much lower price. my only beef with the P55 chipset is that it's considered more "mainstream" than the X58 chipset, so some of the motherboards i've seen are kinda...weak. i would just go with core i7, but i'm kinda short on cash :/

    LONG STORY SHORT: I want to know what's the biggest, bestest and most badass P55 motherboard, with the most features.

    I'm a gamer, so i want it to have good overclocking and Crossfire/SLI capabilities.

    suggestions?

    Gigabyte (like this one) makes some kind of badass mobos. If you're a gamer, then go for the i7 on the 13xx socket - you'll want to be able to upgrade soon enough. Get some third party Zalaman or OCZ cooler for the CPU and the GPU and get overclocking.
