Gigabyte GA-EP35C-DS3R

For well under $200, this board is well worth considering. Its ability to run 45nm-based CPUs, as well as either DDR2 or DDR3 RAM modules, makes it versatile and, dare we say it, future-proof. It ships with a utility that aims to bring power consumption to the forefront of users' minds, but the major selling point is still the memory support.
