I am getting a AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ as it has an unlocked multiplier to OC it without increasing (or increasing very little) core voltage. However, I cant seem to find a good motherboard to compliment this feature. Does anyone have any Ideas in the $100-$200 range.
 
the Gigabyte GA-MA-770-DS3 is good if u dont run crossfirem,and does it an costs $127 AUD
the Gigebyte GA-MA-790x-DS4 i think it does it an surorts crossfire im getting that board soon an costs $187 AUD

If you want the SLI option, you'll want the nForce 590 chipset, as it will do it at x16 / x16 speed. The 570 and lower sli chipsets will only do x8 / x8

The newer boards that support crossfire (ATI) that reddevil suggested are also good, or better.
