I'm finalizing a build and need some advice on a good motherboard.
So far:
Coolermaster Centurion 5
Opteron 148 Socket 939 2.2 ghz
eVGA 7800 GT CO SE
1 gb Corsair Value Select
LG DVD burner
Sunbeam NUUO 550W PSU
Hitachi T7K250 160gb
Audigy 2 ZS
The Gigabyte GA-K8N-SLI's caught my attention until I found the Asus A8N-SLI, but I don't really know how the regular board compares to the deluxe and premiums since I can't find any non-deluxe reviews.
I don't NEED SLI, but it would be nice to have the option. I'm not too big of an overclocker, I'd be happy to get 2.6 or 2.7 out of the Opteron. And I'd like to keep it at about $130 tops. Any ideas?

But if SLI is simply a "nice option for later on" that you are not certain to use. This board can be modded to SLI with little effort.
