Looking For A Mobo To Match My 9800 Xt

[QazQaz007]

ok as most of you know i fried my mobo and cpu
Here
so now i took it on myself to just build a new comp
so far i have
modem
network card
ram-to be decided when i get a mobo
cpu- to be decided when i get a mobo
video card- Radeon 9800 XT!!!
case
keyboard/mouse...bla bla bla

so my question is what mobo should i get?

i want to have lots of room to upgrade and overclock

i am leaning toward the amd xp for the cpu
dont want to go with the 64's yet cuz there to expensive
about as much as my video card

i would like to have at least 400mhz fsb and the fastest ram

amd xp mobo only please

thank you
