    That board will work, however you may be better off sticking with a P35 based board. The Gigabyte GA-P35-S3G appears to be in the same price range as the MSI in the original article, so may be worth a look. If you search for P35 or P45 there are a few other boards with additional features like eSATA, etc.

    edit: it seems I type too slowly :(

    Thanks, but i would rather it came from Novatech because it is very close to me!
    http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/products/a554x1y0z1p0s0n0m0

    I found the ones there on novatech but they are even more expensive.
    I dont think they are exactly the same but they are very similar here - http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/products/a554x1y0z1p0s0n0m125

    Edit: Thanks Trigger,that one is in my price range and looks good! I'll go get that one now :)

    The P45 if you can afford it, otherwise the P31 will do just fine. Or, the MSI below is also a pretty good buy too.

    Are you intending to overclock? How many hard drives/PCI/PCI-Express slots do you need? Both these question should dictate your purchase :)

    if you only need one pci-e slot the P31 is a great choice
