Motherboard Help

Hello all, I am wanting to get the AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core 965 Black Edition 3.40GHz CPU and am not sure which motherboard to get. My budget is around £100 max, but the cheaper the better. Any help would be much appreciated.

My graphics card is a Nvidia 8800GT with corsair XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 1333MHz RAM is that helps.

Cheers

Phil

I'd go with one of the Asus Evo range, they have support for the Hex-cores which AMD are bringing out so if you want to upgrade in the future they would be pretty safe:

Asus M4A785TD-V Evo

Asus M4A79XTD Evo

This!

If you aint got the CPU and still looking for a motherboard, why not get a i7 setup, your already a 1/3 of the way there.
