When looking for one, what are the critical things I need to look out for ? So this is what I'm hoping to build. Running PT 12 native, windows 7, I7 proc, 16gb ram minimum, SSD and a spinner. Budget for motherboard around $400. Look forward to a bit of help. Thanks guys.

Its all right here. First few pages, and the last few pages(and look at signatures like mine)
