What motherboards do people use for a phenom II.

My friend wants a phenom II 940 and a motherboard that will overclock it well.

Preferably one that supports crossfire and about £100

What about a Asus M3A78- T 790GX

Asus M4A79 Deluxe, over £100 but a superb board nonetheless.

Still running my 'old' MSI K9A2 Platinum, I've had it since release 18 months ago and it clocks the Phenom II just fine.

Looks like it does

Asus M3A79-T keeps my PII720 from falling off the desk. 'B' grade so under £100 but no cables, disks or manuals ymmv. Still, it's working a charm, worth looking out for if you're up for the hassle of downloading the drivers etc.
