I'd personally not buy a MSI mobo (but then my Asus one has generally been fine )

I would go with Abit, Good stable boards and not too pricy.
Top of the Range is the AW9D MAX it is all singing all dancing with bult in lights and will have big upgrade potential £132
Mid range you could get the AB9 that is a good board will be ok for upgrades £83
and the low end you have the SG-95 its the low end so not much upgrade potential but dose what you need it to do £37

all prices are ex Vat and from were i work.

My ASUS has been nothing but trouble. It's only because I chose to use the RAID function on it without really realising that it was just a gimmik to sell the board. Didn't realise that real RAID controllers cost upwards of £300 to around £1k
