AMD Motherboard Comparison

[dknutson]

Hey Toms Hardware-ians!

I am starting a computer build, and I figured the best place to start was the motherboard and the CPU. My CPU of choice is the AMD Phenom II X4 925, so a possible MB was the ASU AMD 790GX (Newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131366)

Can anyone think of a better value MB, or a value pack that may include RAM or a PSU?
Thanks!

Frys has the best deals, but it's in stores only. They have the 955 with board for $199 after rebate this week. I like the propus quad core, but the phenom is better for gaming.

Newegg has a combo with the 925 and a Gigabyte GA-M790GPT-UD3H for $225 +$7 shipping - $15 MIR or $217 total
