Gigabyte MA785GMT-USB3 DDR3 ~ 5.8k

Dont even consider the ASUS M4A78LT-M LE DDR3. It can support the only proccies upto 95w TDP.

No point going for DDRII when u have that kind of budget. But then the DDRII option for Gigabyte mobo is Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H ~ 4.3k. Gigabyte is considered as Tier-I mobo manufacturer and Biostar is considered as a Tier-II manufacturer by most review sites.

That said many in TE are satisfied with Biostar's quality and reliability. One more option is Biostar TA785G3 HD ~ 4.5k. Its DDRIII based 785G chip.

BIOSTAR :: TA785G3 HD :: Specification

+1 for the Gigabyte MA78GMT-USB3. Plus, I don't think there is another equivalent motherboard in the same price-range.
