HALP!

I'm kind of picky about bugs... and I've decided to go C2D as a stop gap. Even a stock e5200 bests my rig... so it's time to upgrade to C2D. Either e5200 or E7400, but I'm not sure right now. I can afford either, but I figure if I end up going intel chipset I'll get a quad down the road... so if that's the case I'll get an e5200 now.

If you guys can help me narrow down my choices, I'd be grateful. I decided after staring at it long enough I just didn't like the gigabyte boards. Looking at asus, and dfi, etc.

What would all you recommend for a good P45 based motherboard for overclocking the crud out of a core 2 duo?
 
NVM, I decided against going against the grain. I pretty much ordered most of the stuff that like 90% of enthusiasts on a budget order. E5300 and Antec Nine Hundred combo'd at 25$ off, and minus 10$ shipping. Got a UD3P and 4GB of ram with a 15$ combo off, so altogether, 50$ less than I should have paid individually... and it should work out to be a system miles faster than my old setup. Just gotta find a cooler for the old rig now.
