KX7-333, A7V8X, AK35GTR, 8K3A, any of the kt333 boards really, or kt400.

the A7V8X would be my pick

A7V8X would be my pick too

, but I don't know if it'll guarantee you 200 FSB.

I'd shoot for a more realistic 185 FSB, if I was you, but you know, that's just a stability preference.

That board does look tight, but it won't be out for a bit...

Nah w/ Corsiar PC3200 and an unlocked CPU, the only thing holding me back is the motherboard. I'm trying to elminate that problem now.

It'll be out in July or August (so August or September).

It'll also have the new serial ATA... check it out

Yeah I read about it @ ocworkbench a week or so ago. Looks tight for sure.
