Most of the i815E boards have seen a price hike since our last guide but the increases are not tremendously high. As with our previous motherboard price guides we still recommend the ASUS CUSL2 simply because of it's rock solid stability and top notch performance.
The Transcend TS-ASL3 is a good buy if you're looking for a basic 815 motherboard and it has come down very nicely in price which makes it an even better buy for the budget minded since you get overclocking features, stability, and performance for $101.
As far as the i815EP motherboards are concerned, we recommend the ASUS CUSL2-C based on reviews from around the web which generally agree that the CUSL2-C exhibits all the trademark qualities of ASUS motherboards in that it is a very stable board with solid performance and has got overclocking features. The CUSL2-C is also based closely on the CUSL2 design which, as we just mentioned, is far from disappointing.
