Most people are going to recommend the Gigabyte UD3P/R since the sky is the limit overclocking on that board. The Asus P5Q boards are pretty good but im not sure which one is the best of the bunch though

I just put together a rig with the ASUS P5Q Pro and I'm loving it. It has a ton of features in the BIOS for OC'ing but I think I'm going to leave my Q6600 stock for now and see how it does. I put in my vote for that board, and it's only $125 I think. I will find you a link here in a bit.

For Asus board, go for Asus P5Q-e. For Gigabyte board, EP45-UD3P. At $115, UD3P is my vote.

Here you go

Edit: I should also add that I had no problems with installing this board. It POST'ed fine, setup RAID0 just like it should on the first shot and is loving 64bit Vista. As of this post I need to update my sig but it will be done here in a little bit.

I was going to get the Asrock one with a 2000mhz FSB but ended up getting a Phenom II instead.

Here is my pick: DFI p45 Dark

I have the P35 Dark, which I can personally vouch for, and it is awesome. However, the P45 is also a great board.
