    Looking for a Mobo

    Okay so i'm going to upgrade my pc soon and I want to upgrade my motherboard among other things, the mobo is the only part I haven't picked out yet.

    I currently have a LGA 775 Q6600 CPU so I want a LGA 775 motherboard (obviously) I have 4GB DDR2 memory too 2 x 2GB but i would like to give myself room to upgrade the RAM more, I want a DDR2 board as I don't feel like paying for DDR3 just yet. I also want to watercool my CPU with a pre-built watercooling kit.

    Also i'm not sure if the motherboard can affect the OS but i'm looking to upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit so if any of my system would make a difference to that please let me know.

    Any suggestions? My full system specs are in the "My Syetem" tab on the left.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    The biostar TPowerI45 seems to have good reviews and is supposed to be a good overclocker.

    If you're not looking for Crossfire and are just up for a bit of overclocking at a low price then this will do fine:
    ASUS P5Q SE
