Read some reviews on this mobo, people seem to be pleased with it on the whole. Was wondering if you lot could give me some feedback?

Or would it be worth spending an extra £40 and getting this one

well one is Matx and the other is atx, which suits your needs better? Which has a better layout? what cards will you be using? OCing?

Mine is an mATX, and it sucks. No room on it at all.

I have a cheiftec dragon case, so I'm presuming that'll take ATX. I have a 4670 atm, will probably save up for a 5870. 3x2gb of ram will be heading my way as well. And I'll probably want to overclock slightly

My matx is fine for now, at some point I may have to choose between crossfire or sound card though, unless a single slot 5850 is released down the road.

You do realize  P55 only utilizes dual channel ram so you'll only be using 2x2 gig.

No...he will still have 3x2GB of RAM.

It just won't run in triple channel.

If you are getting LGA1156, 3x2GB is BAD choice. BAD. Dual channel with 3 sticks is dumb idea.

3x2 in single channel which is not a good idea.
