I've got most of what I want figured out already, but there are so many variants from each mfgr on this chipset.

Here's my approximate build; please recommend a mobo.

intel 2500K
intel 510 SSD
4x4GB 1600mhz RAM (Corsair Vengeance or g.skill ripjaws)
1x 448 core GTX 560ti for now; possibly a second later if needed and i get a new psu
Corsair H80 cooler

Going into an Antec nine hundred case with a corsair 550w psu.

Looking to OC to ~4.5-4.8ghz

Use is primarily for TOR and BF3. Would like to keep it under $200 but will go to 250 if there's a good reason.

At your price range you can go for GEN3 mobos, they might even support the next generation Intel CPUs. I like to recommend ASUS boards, great quality, any one of the top three from this list should be good.
