Q6600 motherboard for normal use

[PCAssembler]

I am planning to get an Intel Q6600 and was wondering which mobo would be the best (both price and performance-wise).
I will not be OC'ing it and even if I do feel the need for that maybe just a bit.
I would also not be getting a graphics or a sound card for the time being (budget constraints ) but maybe after a month or two. So acceptable onboard graphics and sound would be required for some time.

Given this which would be a good choice for a mobo?
TIA

you didn't list a price range, but this would be a nice one:

or it's big brother:

I have this one, but haven't gotten around to setting it up in a SFF case. Search around though and you'll hear pretty good things about it

Good luck

He need onboard gfx chaps which rules out P35 chipset mobos.
G33 based should be good.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Am looking at them right now.
I was looking for something within US$ 100 to 110.

Any of these should be good... and they can OC nicely, too:

$135 - Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R LGA 775 Intel G33 Micro ATX
$120 - Asus P5K-VM LGA 775 Intel G33 Micro ATX
$93 - Msi G33M-FI LGA 775 Intel G33 Micro ATX

So does anyone here have this (Intel Q6600 and the GB mobot) combo?
If so how do you find performance and feature-wise?

eVGA is planning to release 7000 series boards which incorporate built-in video equievelent to 7-series gfx cards. One of the boards even has a built in HDMI port making it perfect for a HTPC.

MSRP on the top board is something like $130. Street prices should be much less.

Biostar already has one listed at newegg. $74.99 I think.
