I whole-heartedly agree with moonpie, you can't go wrong with an ASUS A7N8X. I have an A7N8X Deluxe 2.0 and it's been a great mobo. For the price range you are looking for, the A7N8X -X for $61 would be a great choice. But the on-board sound on the -X board probably isn't as good as the Deluxe. Here's a link for the -X

Hope that helps.
