Asus A8R-MVP (Crossfire) is a nice option, especially if you are going to get an ATI card. Also, the ECS Kn1 Extreme is a good option, both around 100.

That's almost double his budget. There are better boards for 160 than that, if he's willing to go that high.

im not too shure.... what are the better things i should be looking for when looking at mobos? is it really worth it to spend the extra bucks on just the mobo?

i can get it in the package deal with the 7800gt but the gt it comes with its core clock is lower.

ok would it be more better to get this package
