I'm sure you get this type of post all the time, "What mobo should I get?" I'll do the same thing... but more on topic. So this is what I want.

1. A "twin bios" feature. (If any one needs it I do.) ;)
2. 3 phase power regulation.
3. nForce 2 or KT400A chipset.
4. Fan and temperature readings in windows.
5. This is optional... Overclocking in windows.
6. It needs to be socket a.
7. Needs a couple fan headers. This number excluding cpu and the north bridge.
I would just get the asus but based on this forum they are buggy.

Thanks!!

I think you are gonna be stuck with maybe 1 or 2 brands for the DUAL BIOS feature.. Gigabyte is one. and I think Albatron has it too. (since they are so related with Gigabyte) there is a new NForce2 board coming out from Gigabyte, much better option than the KT400.. perhaps wait until that board becomes available. I checked the Gigabyte site and no listings as of yet.. there are probably a few other boards out there that meet your criteria, check out Gigabyte and Albatron's websites.
