I want to buy a new mainboard with the following features.

Buy a gigabyte M57SLI. It fits all these requirements.
According to [1] it does not fulfill 2., or do I miss something.
Ah, you're right, I looked over that one requirement.
That is why I am planning to buy the ASUS M2V-MX SE [5] having read the announcement from Rudolf Marek [6].
Yeah, that's another option, and it has a socketed rom chip.
Ok. It looks like, I am going to order this next week.
Great. I'm sure Rudolf will be glad if you can help test/port the board.
Thanks, Ward.
