What board to use??

I am trying to build an OC system. I plan to use a Barton 2500. I also have a ATI 9600XT. What motherboard and ram should I use?
 
The DFI Infinity is pretty popular. Very overclocking friendly from what I hear. Then there's always the Abit NF7-S. My Asus A7N8X Deluxe Rev. 2.0 is still going strong... perfectly stable with a 233 MHz FSB too (although I run it at 216 for CPU and RAM compatability).
 
What are you system specs? Are those screen shots taken with the pc that is running on the A7N8X Deluxe? What ram are you using? Thanks
 
I have a Mobile XP2500 @ 2.48 GHz with Mushkin PC3500 Level 1 RAM on an A7N8X Deluxe with a 9800 Pro (at stock speeds now cause Doom 3 doesn't like more than a 5 MHz overclock on the core). FSB is 216, RAM is running in sync at 2-3-3-11.
