Moved from the Motherboard forum because of a lack of activity.

I am having a very difficult time picking a motherboard. I don't know enough about them to make a decision. If someone can recommend me an exact motherboard, (perhaps a newegg link or something) that would be greatly appreciated. I wont be using a RAID configuration, and while I plan on getting a 9800gx2 I am using a 24'' monitor at 1920x1200 which some say would be best with SLI while others say the 9800gx2 will handle it just fine. I don't believe I'll be doing any overclocking as well. Thanks in advance.

Didn't you already have another thread here in Gen Hard about mobos?:

As said already in that thread, the DS3R is a good choice. And there was a huge list of recommended mobos in that thread as well. Since you're not using SLI, go for a mobo based on the P35 chipset. Like the DS3R for example.
 
Heh, its your money, so its your choice. We've given you all the info you need to make a good decision. All the boards in that list in your old thread were boards we recommend daily.
