Default ASUS High end MB

I had to send a Motherboard back for RMA. They are refunding my money instead of replacing the MB. The MB I sent back was the Asus M3N-HT Deluxe/Mempipe nForce 780a

http://http://www.tigerdirect.com/ap...963&CatId=2320


This seems to be a very good board. I got this board because it had onboard 512 MB video.
I am not a gamer but would like to have a high end MB just to have it. I would like some opinions.
1. Do I get the exact same board.
2. Is there a higher end board.? On board video not 100% necessary.
3. Board must be designed for the AMD Phenom X4 9850 Quad Core Processor - Black Edition
4. Prefer to stay with Asus. But would consider others.
