Inexpensive AM2 mobo for sli?

[Ananan]

I'm seriously thinking about buying another 8800 Ultra to Sli, but I don't know much about the difference in brands of mobos. There's so many it's a little overwhelming.

Can someone suggest a good, inexpensive AM2 mobo for Sli?

Thanks

The best would be 780a. Prices are over $200.

2nd best would be 750a. Prices start from $125. ASUS M3N-HD looks good to me.

The cheaper ones are 500 SLI. This is AM2/AM2+ (Phenom) ready. The others are only AM2.

Thx for info

The $80 might be closest to what I'm looking for; I don't want to spend a ton of money.

I think you have that backwards. The 700a series chipsets support all the advanced Phenom features, while the 500 series would just be socket compatible.
