For those who helped me out choosing a processor in the CPU section, I figure it's about time to look at motherboards. I still may try to get a E6750 if I can, but I think I'd rather try my hand at the E2180. I just wanted to know of any good pairings that may make my life easier when I start overclocking. I know there are a lot of people who have found the E2180 overclocking easily on a lot of boards with great success and I just wanted to get some good suggestions or stories of success or marks.
As of far I have looked at the Gigabyte series specifically at the GA-P35C-DS3R and the GA-P35T-DQ6. I have been looking for a good price/performance board with at least one IEEE port and one IDE connector, but those seem to be kicking it up past $300 bucks. Any suggestions?
For now I may skimp on the HDD and the RAM depending on how much I spend on the CPU and the mobo. Thanks.
