Intel E2180 dual core motherboard recommendations?

[nOOky]

Thinking about picking up one of those cpu's. I have 2 gigs of Corsair XMS memory that should work, I just need a lower-priced mobo to overclock that cpu a bit. Going to put it in a spare gamer with an X1950XT etc. for playing my older games. I don't want to spend a fortue, but I want a noticeable increase as I also use the computer for decoding dvd's etc.
Help!

See system #1 in my sig. IMHO, you can't go wrong with that combo.

you could also look at the MSI P35 NEO2FR

Pretty much any of the P35 chipset motherboards should be fine, just find one with the features you need.

Now if you are looking for a great overclocker without all the bells and whistles you really can't beat the value of the IP35-E for ~$65 after MIR from newegg.

Agreed. I'm building my E2180 + IP35-E box ... today?

Abit IP-35E, Gigabyte DS3L and MSI Neo2-FR are the 3 low priced OC darling boards. The last has the most features and best cooling (and is really a 'Pro' board with some options removed and a sticker over the 'Pro' silkscreen), and the IP-35E is the least costly. I like solid capacitors, so I'm a fan of the DS3-L.

You can't go wrong with any of those 3.

Good suggestions, tanky.
I'll check out the choices.
