No OC, SLI or Crossfire - what mobo to buy?
What's the best build motherboard under $200 (CAD) with decent onboard audio and firewire? I don't plan to overclock. I don't want SLI or crossfire. I want a motherboard that doesn't have a lot of problems (ex. incompatible memory, graphics card, etc.) and easy to install the components.

Here's my potential set up:
Case - Antec P182
Drive - DVD writer
Mobo - ???
CPU - Q6600 (retail)
GPU - 8800GTS
RAM - 2GB x 2 or 4GB x 1 (depending on the pins of mobo) DDR2
HDD - 500GB 7200RPM and 73GB 15KRPM
PSU - Corsair TX650W (24 pin)
OS - Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit
