Would like a recommendation on which motherboard I should buy. I want to use the AMD 9850BE CPU and NVIDIA chipsets. The board should be equivalent to the ASUS AMD chipset on the M3A79-T Deluxe, supporting 140W CPU. It can hold an integrated VGA chip, but is not a must since I use an external VGA card. The board should be able to handle HT3.0 as well. So which board with NVIDIA chipset should I chose?

If you want to go high-end with AMD + nVidia, then the AMD 9950BE & ASUS Crosshair II Formula go well together. The 9950 is the 140W one btw, the 9850 is only 125W. The next step down would be 9850 & ASUS M3N-HT.

So then you want to be able to run triple SLi? If that's the case and you don't mind spending a little more go with the Asus Crosshair II or the MSI K9N2 Diamond. If you only wanted to spend no more than $190 though then look at this board.
