There are MANY factors here.

What is your budget?

Do you want Intel or AMD?

Will you overclock?

Will you use Nvidia or ATI graphics cards?

How many graphics cards will you run?

Do you have old parts to reuse?

ect. ect.

We need much more information to help you.

Ok what is your budget for this? Do you want to build a whole computer or do you just need a motherboard?
If you just need a motherboard what CPU do you have?

If you need more than just a motherboard please follow the format on this link http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/261222-31-build-advice

That will make things easier for those of us trying to help.
