You can't really go wrong with any motherboard, I threw the cheapest Asus one (Asus P8B75-M $80.00 Cdn) a year ago into my den pc (which acts strictly as a secondary BF3 gaming pc for when a friend or two come by) and everything works great. I would spend the extra little bit and have the second slot for SLI because as it sounds like you stick with a build forever you just may want that option in the future. The cheaper mb have 2 slots for ram, the better ones 4. In the end it doesn't really matter as you'll want 8 GB either way. Just make sure it's a socket 1155, try not to buy the absolute cheapest model (but it will still work fine) and everything will be ok. Stick with the quality manufacturers like Asus and Gigabyte, don't by some lousy uber cheap Chinese knock off. *edited to add* Get a m/b with 4 slots then you can use Wappy's 2 sticks and just add 2 more which won't be much because ram is cheap like borscht these days. If you get a m/b with 2 slots then Wappy's ram won't do you any good as 4 Gb doesn't quite cut it for a current gaming machine running windows 7. I find 8 gigs is a nice round number using 4 slots because many diiferent ram configurations can be utilized. It's good for the "bang for yer buck" factor.
