Best cheap mobo for E6750?
I'm not interested in overclocking, going to use 2x1GB of low latency 667MHz RAM (probably corsair XMS), need 1 IDE and at 4 SATA, 1GB LAN, and I guess it would be handy to have a SATA on the back pannel, and I guess that's about it!
Is the iP35 my only option? as older/cheaper chipsets don't support 1333MHz FSB? such as the i965 or i945?
I see people in other threads saying "you can get cheaper motherboards, but they won't have as many features" - What do they mean by other features? - Is it overclocking features in the BIOS they are talking about? or are they talking about having things like 6 SATA? and a handful of PCI-E rather than 1 or 2?
Also, what's on-board sound like for 7.1 surround sound? - because I'm a surround sound virgin and planning to get some 5.1 or 7.1 speakers with my new system too.

Ohh, another thing I was wondering about... How come hardly any mobos list support for 533MHz RAM anymore? I was thinking it would be handy to have support for that because I tinker with PCs a lot (apart from overclocking) and might want to test old ram in my PC - do they actually not support DDR2 533 if it's not listed?
