tried and true is the gigabyte 965p ds3, however if you're looking for something to run ddr3 and the next generation of processors might as well look into the p35 chipset ie the gigabyte p35 ds3r or p35c ds3 I think those boards satisfy all of your requirements, as for the processor i would go with a c2d chip like the e6420 or if you can wait till the end of july to upgrade you can get a better chip than that for the same price (around $180 usd)
