Actually, I didnt want to be too specific but since people are pretty firmly on this bandwagon I'll be more complete... Giga-Byte does have some of the best boards available, the difference is that a GB board has *everything* onboard and you pay for it. The chips they use are good quality and good support but you pay for the all-in-one nature of the beast.
I own an Asus A7N8X-X mobo. It uses the new NVidia NForce 200 chipset which has the 400MHz FSB (plenty fast for 90% of users) when you use an Athlon XP 2400 (or 2600, maybe) or above. These boards are dual-channel whith AGP 8x slots like they should. Toss in some PC3200 RAM (400Mhz) and youre golden.
These are good products that run VERY solidly and have great reps. They're over-clockable and tweakable and reliable.
