Title says its all really, its time for a new mobo 
Looking for a lovely AM3+ board with a bit of a diff.... has to be black or at least a dark colour (fitting in with my new colour scheme) and overclocks well enough with a x6 1100T ..... and ready for bulldozer if I do chose to upgrade cpu later down the line once it arrives and so on
Im currently running an Asus M4A79XTD EVO (original revision) but soon to be using it in a different build since im going for something new
I have looked around and found 3 boards im interested in and guess what... OcUK stock them! (bonus) would like some of your opinions on which would be better to get seeing as there is not a huge price gap between them and tbh my budget for a board is £200 so they all fit in nicely

So what board do you guys reckon I'd be best to get out of those 3 ? ... I will be using x2 6950's CF and overclocking cpu to at least 4ghz. My initial thought was to get the high end one but is it really going to be worth it? I assume it would be but I'd like to get some thoughts from you guys out there
