Hey guys what do you think about this board

ASRock M3N78D nForce 720D (Socket AM3) PCI-Express DDR3 16GB

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ASRock-M3N78D-nForce-720D-Socket-AM3-PCI-Express-DDR3-/200436202082?pt=UK_Motherboards_CPUs&hash=item2eaaedba62

I was thinking of buying it and adding the
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Socket AM3 3.2 GHz

I know this proberly isnt the cheapest combo but im working on a brand new build and performance and power is a must i do high res gaming
And since i have money now i would rather buy something great then get say an cheap AM2+ board and regret it later

Also im buying a very nice Nvidia video card to match i have £150 for that
i could push £200 if its worth it

Thanks
 
Are you planning to SLI in the future? If yes then, get an nForce 980 mobo. Otherwise get a cool 890FX/GX board. Which would be better i suppose. For 200 pounds, you may get the HD5870 or the HD6870. Don't know the prices in your area!
