either A8N32-SLi Deluxe or AN8 32X would be good choices.

Look harder for a DFI:P

If you've exausted every, EVERY option. The Asus A8N32-SLi Deluxe.

The Abit AN8 is a very solid contender, I'd take it over the Asus.

As others have stated, DFI is the way to go unquestionably if you can find one somewhere.

Great CF board and will work flawlessly with your nV card. You just won't "officially" be able to run SLI if you decided to get another 7900GS.
