And you wanna use a X2 4200+ to match it, and there is cheaper and better solutions if you want cheap than nForce boards...And if it was price only, there is still the 50$ Via board.
The average buyer won't buy at "back alley" stores like stalliontek. And as far as the choices I submitted, I chose those with the highest ratings/numbers shown at NewEgg. Nothing scientific about my demonstration. I just did a quick search at the most popular online store in America.
