Get Gigabyte GA-G41M-Combo Motherboard for ~2.8k. It supports both DDR2 and DDR3 RAM.

Please post what are existing components tou are having, especially you are having DDR2 or DDR3 ram. Then we can provide you better suggestion.

Performance and feature wise all are more or less same. However, the Gigabyte board is very much well proven.

get the Gigabyte GA-G41M-Combo - it will be enough to OC your cpu with the existing DDR2 ram module you have.

GA-G41MT-S2 or P5G41T-M LX3 are good choices..

^^ he did not ask for it but it can be considered as an additional feature ;-) GA-G41MT-S2 is better in OCing a cpu like e5200 - even with a 1.3k cooler like CM Hyper TX3 it's possible to take the cpu upto 3.5Ghz easily using this mobo.
