Im in the process of putting a new computer together, i will be over clocking ( and water cooling). I need to be pointed in the right direction of choosing a mobo. It seems like P5Bs are the best thing.

Looking to spend $100-$150.

This is what i plan on putting inside.

G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)

Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 Allendale 1.8GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor

XFX PVT73GUGF3 GeForce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card

I was originally going to go with the biostar, but i decided not to. Seems like there are many problems surrounding that board.

What would be a good board for me?

If you are going to get a P5B....

I'm sorry, I can't in all good consious reccomend one.

Get the Deluxe one. It has been the best for every one who has gone
that route.

I just returned my P5B Plus (I hated it) & lo & behold, 15 minutes
after mailing it, NE e-mailed me, the DFI 965S Dark is NOW in stock.

Yep, RIGHT NOW. 5-21-07 09:32 PST.

Before that, I would say Gigabytes DS3 (around $100 /126 now?)

Oh, and try to get the D9 memory, future proof yourself.
 
Im learning towards the Gigabyte SD3, as for the p5k, i guess its new because there are no reviews, also its not on new egg so forget it lol.
