Anyone any suggestions for a motherboard to go with a Q6600 chip?
Should have audio and SLI - otherwise any suggestions will be considered!

depends upon your price range really mate. This motherboard looks good to me but if the price of that is a bit too high for you, then I would probably consider this or this

Thanks Joshua - I like the GB boards!
I am trying to find the reference to express boot (boot record is held on the equivalent of a flash drive hard wired to the main board)
Anyone any ideas?

OK this is what I have ended up with - had to get it all from ebuyer in the end because of delivery ussues: the spec is for Vista eventually.
Asus P5N32-E SLI board
Intel Q9300 quad 2.5 GHz 6Mb Cache
2 x 9600GT cards
4 Gb Kingston kit 800 mhz DDR2 6400
hope the thing works!

I might come back to this august group to see about clocking this one - just a bit perhaps.
It is all in preparation for 64 bit Vista......did I really say that?
