Noob Mobo Suggestion

[MarcAdrian]

Hi Guys

I was looking for suggestions on getting a good motherboard to complement the following specs below:

Proc: Q6600
Mem: 2x2 gb OCZ Reaper 1066
VGA: BFG tech GTX 260 216 Core OCX
Vista 64bit

* Looking at SLI in the future and overclocks as well.
* Was wanting to Max out settings to most 3d games on a 22" LG LCD

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

I would go with a 780i because of tri sli and i have it and it overclocks well for me 4.2 on air

As long as it's stable. If possible can you suggest a specific board I can look at? I'm kinda interested in the Asus Striker II formula. Any better suggestion? Thanks

The Asus Striker II formula is a very good board. Really though I'd save money and go with

ASUS P5N72-T Premium
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131294

but it's up to you. MSI also makes good boards, but I don't know why they have such weird a$$ 700i series boards.
