Please reccomend board for first build.

Hi , I am planning my first custom PC build and would like some advice on a reasonably priced , high spec motherboard.

Ideally ATX or Micro ATX , for use with Pentium quad core , which supports the Corsair Dominator series RAM and has up to date and numerous connectors etc.

I'm not entirely sure about memory/motherboard bus speed compatibility , maybe someone could explain ?

Thanks in advance

Blimey you guys are fast , I only posted 10 seconds ago ! Cheers for the advice , I was looking spend up to £150 so this fits nicely into my price range.

From my own experiences I'd go with any of the Asus P5Q range.
