Instead of posting a bunch of sites, I would suggest doing a Google (Or similar) search for 'motherboard reviews'. Pass on the first few that come up that are usually the main paid advertising sites and you should be able to find what you are looking for.

Once you have a motherboard that looks interesting, search again with the motherboard name and model, plus the word 'reviews'. That's the method I use to get a variety of opinions.

Newegg is the best option, and usually has user reviews on there about each product.

Thats what I'd recommend too. Though im in the UK and cant buy from Newegg, I still visit it just to read the customer reviews about a particular product. Find out all the Pros and Cons from a customer point of view, before making a purchase.

i woudnt rely to much on user reviews at newegg or any other retail site, these are just there customers posting. i dont find comments like "its great", "it blew me away", "WOW, what more can i say" etc very helpful. if you really want mobo info visit some hardware sites.

isogonic, there are alot of comments like "Wow"; "blow me away" etc.. but there are also personal experiences that people have had about products. This would include many cons that you would usually not find on a review site.

For example, I was to purchase a set of earphones (high end ones), read many professional onlime reviews; until i read about some consumer reviews about how weak the cord is and how easily it can break (not mentioned with other reviews). Not all comments end up like "WOW, Blow me Away"; there are some rather useful information in customer reviews, you just need to dig for it.

i stand corrected. some user reviews can prove helpful.
