Default What r the cheapest board compatible for Q6600 and 8800 ultra

Hello everyone, lately I had been very bussy with my new intel's build. Originally I was heading intel+ati route until few days ago after a RMA on my 2900 GPU due to opened box issue. I was offered a deal where I add a 100 bucks and I can get a 8800 ultra, I be pretty stupid if I didnt grab it right? I notice its no good to change GPU while my build is just a step away from completion. Now I have to rethink my mb again(luckly I haven't purches mb yet):

Here is the list again:
CPU: Q6600(on its way to my house)
Heatsink: zalman 9500(out of stock every where I looked)
RAM: 2g crusial 1066(in my closet)
HD: 500g seagate(in my closet)
DVD: LG(in my closet)
GPU: Evga 8800 Ultra(on its way to my house)
PSU: 620 Watts corsair(in my closet)
MB: ???????

before I was thinking using gigabyte's DS3P since I planed on getting a second 2900 some where arround end of this year with a 1000 watts psu to crossfire. But since I no longer going with ATI I think that the crossfire support from this board is no longer in my consideration. For my newboard I plan to spend arround 150 CDN for it any recommandation?


thx for looking
