This board will be used in conjunction with a Pentium D 805 w/ DDR2 800, yes the 945gc says 667 I know but it will run the 800 at a lower speed.

G31

I would do some research before buying a G31 board to use with a Pentium D805. The Pentium D 805 isn't officially supported by that board according to the gigabyte website.

I've also been looking for a board with onboard graphics to pair up with a Pentium D 805 I have lying around. I've pretty much ruled out the G31 and G33 boards since the processor isn't officially supported by any of the boards I have seen.

I've been looking at the 945, 965, and nvidia 630i boards.

I actually decided on a G33 board. It's going into a file server so because of it having 6 sata II connectors I chose it that and I can upgrade to a faster cpu if needed.
