I am building a new system and I really need to know choices for good motherboards for the Phenom II 940 for around $100-120. I plan on using crossfire in the future.

Currently my choices are
GIGABYTE GA-MA770-UD3 AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-MA790X-UD4P AM3/AM2+/AM2 AMD 790X ATX AMD Motherboard
ASUS M4A78-E AM2+/AM3 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail
MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail

Thanks a lot

I just got the ASRock AOD790GX-128M, thus far has been pretty sweet. Got my 940 up to 3.8Ghz so far, gettin ready to do some stability testing. Its just over $100 on newegg right now.

Look at the mobo/cpu combos on the newegg 940 product page. You want a 790GX or FX from any of those brands you listed.
