best gaming Mobo for $150

[aircommando13]

what's the best gaming motherboard for around $150 for this build?

New Components
Intel E8400, planning on overclocking
4GB RAM (dual channel) or 3GB (triple channel) if the new x58 intel chip is in the budget
GeForce 9800GTX or GTX 260, not sure yet, planning on SLI down the road
500GB SATA II Hard Drive
DVD-Burner
630 watt PSU

I have looked at the nforce 750i mobos, but what intel mobos would work good for roughly the same price or less? I don't know that much about Intel's motherboards.

If you can wait for the $50 rebate that would put you at the top end of your $150.

As far as I know the other chipset will be much more and the x48 doesn't support SLI just Crossfire.

yea but the 600i series doesn't have pci express 2.0

Edit: nvm I found a cheap bundle for a 780i mobo and the e8400

PCI-E 2.0 is completely backwards compatible with PCI-E 1.0 and i seriously doubt you'd be maxing out the bandwidth of either, so you'd be good to go either way, but if you already got that bundle then its whatever
