I don't know about prices because I'm from the UK, but the Foxconn A7DA-S is one of the best "cheaper" boards available in the UK.

Supports 720BE (I've overclocked that to 3.48Ghz on this board, it will go higher), it supports 8GB of RAM running at 1066Mhz (PC8800) and it's really good quality.

I second the foxconn. I got one running the ph2 x3 720 at 3.4 and my ram is at 1066. The bios is a lil wierd to overclock with but you get used to it. Definitely go with the foxconn.

Cheap mobo

Biostar TA790GX comes in less than £80.00 - you will always regret a cheap mobo

The BIOS on the A7DA-S is much cleaner and easier than one the A79A-S ;)
