best i7 board @ $200

[Ignorantguy]

Whats the best board for around $200? Ive been w/o my gaming pc since April althought my laptop and ps3 do keep me busy. Asus and Gigabyte have always treated me nice so I'd like to stick with one of them. I'll be running it with a 920, 6g Ram, a gtx260, and U320 scsi drives so pci-x 64bit perferably. Im not sure if they make gaming boards with pci-x or not. I havent really checked any specs for exspansion slot types. I would use pci-express but I cant find any scsi raid controllers that use it. I have no need for dual vga setup so maybe one w/o SLI or CF capability. Chipset? eeeh Ive always been a fan of nvidia but I hear intel is just as good so it really doesnt matter. OCing would be my biggest concern. I have never messed with ocing so Id like a board thats easy to learn on and is very stable.

Intel has the only chipset running Core i7, which is the X58

All the X58 motherboards I've seen have more than one PCI-E.

Good luck with the SCSI

Under $200
