Best P4 Motherboard

Okay folks, I'm not up on the new P4 motherboards. Which one is the best?

The ABIT IC7 is a nice board, my bro has it and loves it, great OC'er too.

i would go for the Abit IC7-G, i have the IC7 because i didn't need an onBoard Lan, i'll stick with my Lan Card

Why in the hell is the G $212.00??? It doesn't have anything special to justify it...wish I could find a version without Audio since that wouldn't be used anyway.

The best P4 motherboard available right now, in my opinion is the ASUS P4C800 Deluxe, that is the motherboard I am using right now, and it has all of the features anyone could ever want.

abit ic7 is the best ive seen, asus not so great. but the highest score in 3d mark history is currently held by an msi 875p neo board. that thing looks really slick and its pretty fucking fast and durable, my 865 is coming in tommorow, same thing as the 875p neo (has a neon light on the board) but no ECC. go for either the abit or msi. asus is always good, but abit is a far better overclocker and SPEEDY
