I am just not ready to give up my 6800GT, but I am ready to upgrade my mobo and CPU.

Suggestions?

I have an MSI Neo4 platinum right now. it works great with ocz 2gb platinum. I to have a 6800gt. the combo is perfect for me.
I was goin to SLI my videocard, but with prices of 7800gt at newegg i might just upgrade than buy another 6800gt. =P

Back to mobos, epox, DFI, and Jetway are my suggestions and msi too =) I've never owned or tested a jetway board but it seems to get nice reviews from ppl.

The best AGP motherboard for socket 939 is the MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum. If you overclock, this motherboard has been shown to be able to run stable at HT speeds of over 300MHz. This has been shown many times in the forums as well as on many review sites. Additionally there are plenty of voltage tweaks.

If you don't overclock then this motherboard is packed with just about any feature you could want including firewire, dual gigabit Ethernet and nVidia's on-board firewall.

The only one I really know of is the Neo2... There are a few others like the A8V Deluxe, but they are not as good overall , as the Neo2.
