The asrock one isn't bad for gaming....its an option but i am with Rugg's

ebay the X800XT and then you are only 30-50 pounds from a 7800GT....and get a chaintech VNF4 board if you can. Cheap and qaulity...can
t beat it

Expox board rugger listed is my #2 choice....whichever you can find cheaper.

I saw on another post here that Chaintech may be getting out of the mobo business. May want to stay away from recommending them for awhile. Personally , I think they make very good bargain/midlevel boards.
