The GA-EP45-UD3P is still one of the best, most compatible Hack motherboards you can get.
Just about everything you need / want, etc. is in this thread.

It is still a very active thread, and Kaido and Mosslack will be quick to answer questions.
My own setup is:
GA-EP45-UD3P
Q6600
GeForce 9800GTX
I paid about $800 for everything, including case, cooling fan, hard drives, memory, optical - about a year ago. If I had to do it again now, I would prob. get the same motherboard with a faster processor.
