If you're after quality burners look towards either Asus, Pioneer, BenQ, or Plextor. Asus Manufacture Pioneer drives and Plextor's are just rebadged BenQ's. You should also try to go for SATA optical drives whereever possible. The slimmer SATA cables offer more oppurtunity for better airflow, which is good from an overclocking perspective. Just don't expect a massive performance boost over IDE as the mechanicle operation of optical drives doesn't allow the drive to read the disc as fast as data can be sent along a SATA cable.

could you recommend me 2 good ones (pref black and the same model for both)
it needs to be from newegg or tigerdirect and the pair should be less than 70 dollars.

I recommended either Asus, Pioneer, BenQ, or Plextor. Now Plexor drives are pretty expensive for what they do so with that in mind the latest Asus, Pioneer, or BenQ will be fine for your needs. The Asus DRW-2014L1T is a good burner and is the next model up from what I'm currently running in my own system.
