Am I making the right choice?

I want to pick up a Foxconn Mars to overclock an E8400 hopefully. It's pretty expensive for a P35 board though. Are there any cheaper P35's that have similar features and get the crazy overclocks of the Mars? I'm sure there are some but I read conflicting opinions about all brands, maybe someone here has the board I am looking for. Thank you.

I would highly recommend the Abit IP35-E. There is a major thread on this board, and it is on sale at the Egg for $60 AMIR. As you can see by my sig, I picked one up and have had no problems with it what-so-ever.
