Best mobo price/performance ratio under 100$

[realyeti]

hello
I'm planning on a ~500$ budget pc with stuff like e5200, hd4850, 4 gb ram and stuff but i really want to know if there's a bang for the buck under the 100$s... i just dont want to go with the p5q pro regardless of its really good performance and that its around 100$s also... tnx

If you need Crossfire (the P5Q Pro supports it), then for just a bit more money you can get the Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128358&Tpk=ga-ep45-ud3p

You could get the GA-EP45-UD3R for less than $100 if Crossfire is not required: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128359&Tpk=GA-EP45-UD3R
