I already know my 8800GTS From PNY XLR8 will fit, but what will be the best board to house it?

currently own a Lanbox Lite and the Nvidia XLR8 320mb 8800GTS.
I want to go with AMD...

Any thoughts on what mobo i should purchase? (the gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H is what i've been looking into for quite some time)
 
the GA-MA69GM-S2H is a amazing board, is that i have with the beta bios it can do a number of things for oc and can almost keep up with the big boys, i have a 6000+ with this board and have pushed it to well over 3500mhz see here

holy crap :D im always amazed at OC-ers... whats your core temp on your windsor?
at 3.5ghz, and is that the 95 watt edition?

(im still deciding on which board i want, because im not really going to overclock until a while now, because i dont want to ruin my first built PC, LOL. I love the SFF Case because they're so small and shit, im into the fassion, but no doubt im gonna load this shit up packed. Imma do modifications, gets a Clear Raptor, and cut a hole on my windowless LanBoxLite to show that window.(idk, something creative)

Im really sceptical on the power on my SFF, with only one 8800gts...
this is one of the shittier versions of the 8800gts (500 corespeed). Will it be able to run Call of Duty 4 well?
 
idle was 40c and 58c loaded but would only do 3 min occt before it got errors, its stable at 3450 though, and yes it is the 125watt cpu
 
yea i looked it up, :) man, 3.4 is good though. i'll look into a windsor > brisbane. if i know how to OC later on in the race, i'll definitly go black edition(due to its features) but im still learning :) thanks for the help, great community, great people.
