DFI Lan party too much?

[rappy]

For the past week or so, I have been reading as much as I can before I attempt my first build. I am leaning towards a X2 3800 or 4200, but the mobo is a bit more confusing of a choice for me. I see that the DFI LANPARTY mobos are pretty popular, but is it too much for me? I am NOT a huge gamer (only have COD2) and not sure how soon I will attempt to OC my rig (if at all-but I would like to apttempt a small safe OC) I do see that these mobo's are pretty sensitive to their PSU's (I was looking at one of these)

but I think these might not be a good bet? (native 24 pin??) Any other suggestions on a power supply? But more importantly, are these mobo's that good that even a small time gamer with no OC'ing experience should still buy one for its "flexability" and ability to grow into it? or are there any other mobos out there (Asus or Abit?) that do the job just as well, that might not be so "complicated" (in my eyes at least) or am I just getting too pairanoid?

Thanks in advance,

One of my machines is running the ultra-d and it does have a lot of settings in the bios however if you are careful and follow the instructions you should be able to set it up. As for power supplies don't skimp. I would recommend an enermax however seasonic and fortron source have been getting good marks lately at tom's hardware in their testing.
