Hi, I've been lurking around this site/board for quite a while and recently signed up for an account. Please excuse me if I don't make any sense.

I'm trying to build a computer and i'm having a hard time deciding which motherboard to buy. I having been looking at these two in particular:
Foxconn 975X7AB-8EKRS2H
http://tinyurl.com/p3r22
DFI Infinity 975X/G
http://tinyurl.com/mxmwf

I will try to do some overclocking after I build the computer and I was wondering which mobo is best for the price and job.

This maybe an option if my budget doesn't permit me to buy the above boards:
ASUS P5B Socket T (LGA 775) Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131030

Feel free to add any other mobo that you might think would work better.

As of right now I have these parts chosen out:
MSI X1900XTX
E6600 (could change to E6400 if my budget is somehow overextended or someone convince me that it isn't worth it for around $120 more-$1300-1500)

go for the foxconn board.Has digital PWM.And around the same price as the DFI board.
The ASUS P5B will let u hit awesome overclocks but its in the same price range as the P5WDH

ASUS P5B is around the $150s, the Deluxe is around the P5WDH. If the e6600 is going to cost me even more to overclock well, do you think I should just go for the e6400?
