go for this mobo - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-458-AS&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=1990
the Gen3 version is around £20 more than the "normal" Extreme4.

use the saved money to get this - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-190-XF&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1866
comes with 2 games and comes factory overclocked.

get this for PSU, should cope wit ha second hd6870 if you ever need it - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-117-AN&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=
but i advice getting this if it comes back in stock by the time you order - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-006-LA&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=

and get this for CPU cooler - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-001-GD&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=1395
should allow you to overclock the chip to 4.5GHz+
