I love my new ASUS P5K Deluxe. If you want to overclock, get 2GB G.Skill from Newegg... It has won customer choice award 2-3x... I've gotten mine from the rated 800MHz to about 1200MHz just by upping voltage to 2.25v and losening timings to 5-5-5-15. Otherwise G.Skill also makes 800MHz ram with 4-4-3-5 timings DDR2!!!
 
For Motherboard :

If u want both DDR2 and DDR3 :
ASUS P5KC or GIGABYTE P35C DS3R

If u want only DDR2 :
ASUS P5K , ASUS P5K DELUXE, GIGABYTE P35 DS3R

For RAM , i recomand OCZ , GEIL , CRUCIAL ,..... also G.SKill is good too
