What CPU do you intend? I would strongly discourage buying any of
the current (fad) boards that sport Win-raid. MOF, go out of your way
to get a board that doesn't have it. Getting back to CPU, I would
strongly suggest you only buy a board that is on AMD's recommended
list, assuming you intend to buy an AMD proccessor. Which you should ;)
Just as, if not more important, is the power supply. AMD publishes a
recommended list for those also. Pay more attention to model numbers
than brand names.
