Hello all,
I am looking for a motherboard for a Phenom II X4 965 cpu and GTX 460 1GB gpu. I'd like something without a history of problems (this is my first build), able to utilize SLI for a second gtx 460 in the future possibly, able to OC in the future, and would like to have surround sound in the future (this isn't a huge priority though). As far as any other options I'm not really sure what I need and what I don't.
I scouted out a few possibilities... but there are so many choices I'm really stuck! This is one that seemed to stick out plus I got a -$25.00 combo deal for it plus the amd x4 on newegg....

The main thing I'm interested in mostly is it's "future proof quality" I'm aware there is no such thing.... but I think you all know what I'm trying to get at... Would like to spend the extra bucks now instead of more later.... but a cheap mobo that will do the job is pretty enticing to me so I guess it really comes down to opinions...
would appreciate any of your help!
