I think that depends on whether you want all the bells and whistles (soyo dragon plus or MSI K7T266 pro2 ru) such as onboard network, usb2.0, onboard raid, 6 channel onboard sound ect.... or stabilty. It seems more people have problems with the boards with all the onboard stuff than without. I would suggest going for something with the KT266A chipset (ASUS, MSI, SOYO, SOLTEK, GIGABYE) , Nforce is interesting but its new and I've seen quite a few people having problems with them.
Personally I have a MSI pro2 (kt266a) that is rock stable . Check out this article on toms-http://www6.tomshardware.com/mainboard/01q4/011126/index.html as well as the forums at amdmb.com as these are an excellant resource for first hand users feedback.
Hope this helps.
