Are you running DDR ram? That may change things, but otherwise, I would agree with GraingerGuy.

good luck...personally i'd go with a VIA based mobo just because it's well known and any issues should be quickly resolved by the many users. Other pruducts I cannot comment on personally but I like the assurance that I'm not one of a few that have a particular component and can find easy help.

I'd suggest an Asus A7V266-E. The MOST overclockable mobo out there for AMD. I have an AMD 2000+ and it works like a dream.
Asus A7V266-E
