Mobo info for e6600

I've got a 280gtx and q9550 coming to replace the e6600/8800gt sitting on my 780i board. I want to drop these in my older rig and give it a bit of an update too. I know my motherboard in the old rig will also need to be replaced though, and I haven't really been keeping up on current mobo news.

This will be for a secondary rig, gets about 1/3 as much use as the main and mainly used for web and gaming. Don't need anything special like OC or SLI for it. What's some good choices?
 
A p35 or p45 board will work fine for a single video card. The p45 has pci-e 2.0. Check for deals this weekend at newegg and fry's. Many brands will work fine for you. If you can find a p45 for under $80, go for it.
 
Well guess this was a decent time to be looking, just picked up the Gig UD3P board for 99AR at the egg.
