Cheapest pci-e board for 805D ocing?

I need to find the absolute cheapest board I can stick an 805D into with high end air cooling and oc it to like ~3.6. I looked at some boards but the cheapo stuff sometimes doesnt even have vcore adjustment. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm getting this Gigabyte mobo.

$100, gigabit ethernet, HD integrated audio, fanless NB, plenty of PCI slots, and reviewers say it overclocks well. I will have it in a few days, and I can give you my results then.

I'll go with the asus if I can't find anything cheaper. The system isnt for me, but for a friend who only wants about 3.6ghz out of his 805d on the skythe ninja with 2 quiet fans in push/pull.

the gigabyte is looking good...

I still prefer the gigabyte over the ASUS. I like the board layout better, and it's cheaper.

I dont like P5LD2, never gave me good clock on D930, max was 3.66 and max 24/7 was 3.6, and i DID try. Same CPU, cooler and memory booted on first attempt at 4GHz on Bad Axe 304. And whats with all the obsolete IDE ports and only 4 Sata??

That MSI board has no Sata Raid i think? Then i dont like it The best 945 board i had was Abit AL8, not so good layout but stable and easy to OC. Worth the extra $ over the P5LD2 as it has 6 Sata, 2 Raid controllers and FireWire. Btw, dont worry about the AL8 having a northbridge fan, its not so noisy.
