If you had to buy a socketA ddr mobo from Fry's...

...what would it be?

My gf is taking me to Fry's this weekend for my b-day and letting me go on a shopping spree, woohoo!
Any AMD DDR motherboards worth getting there?

Also, anyone seen that black brushed aluminum mid-atx case with dual 120mm fans at Frys? What brand is that?

Just look for the good chipsets.
Namely, SiS 735, AMD 761 (northbridge), or Via KT266A and try to get good name brands. They usually have a pretty good selection of boards there, the prices aren't always the best, but you're not paying, so who cares. Where do I find a girlfriend that lets me have a shopping spree at Fry's Electronics for my birthday? Never mind, I forgot, I'm already spoken for...

does the ECS allow for overclocking? I heard it's missing a few "overclocking" features that other boards have. I'm trying to get my 1.4 to 1.6.

ECS... overclocking... yay or nay?
