Which motherboard?

[swireq]

I need help with choosing new motherboard. I'm getting ATI Radeon 1900xtx video card and I need a new socket 939 motherboard. I'm not planning on getting second video card for crossfire. I was looking at EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra but I think that IDE connectors are going to get blocked by video card. Any suggestions are welcome. I'm ordering from newegg...
