So nForce is pushed back and too expensive. Sis735 offers superior performance, but the only currently available motherboard is the ECS board which offers limited overclocking. The AMD761 boards seem to all have some problems. The KT266 boards have some issues, and the USB dies at 138MHz.

So what to buy, people?

I have a somewhat limited budget, want a DDR board, and want to get one soon (ie, within a week). So what should I get? I'm VERY open to suggestions.

Thanks!

Sense u are going to oc, Gigabyte GA-7DXR or Abit KG7-RAID are both the highest performing 760 boards, both have RAID, and loads of ocing options (same as 8K7A+), and as far as I know, no known issues. They can be expensive ($170) but I think they're well worth it. The major differences between the 2 is, KG7 has Softmenu III, 7DXR has Dual BIOs, and on-board Creative Sound but those are the only major differences. They're da best.
