Think my motherboard just died, what is the best bang for the buck S775 board out?

Turned my PC off for the weekend to save power now it won't POST. No PC speaker so I can't figure out if its board, RAM or CPU (tried 2 PCI-E and one PCI vidcard with no luck).

Any good 100-120 dollar stable OCable S775 boards out there? I haven't built a rig in a long time and need to drop this E6600 and 2 x 1G DDR2 in something soon to test.

I just installed a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L on the weekend, and I am pretty happy so far. Much better than the Intel DP45SG I had before.

I think all the EP45 boards have a pretty good track record per the various user reviews.

From what Ive heard around and based on persoannl experience with one board, I would say that Gigabyte motherboards are pretty solid, priced resonnably and good fro overclking.
I have a p35 DS3r(an older model) but the model that Riffer recommended seems to be all over the place.

I've recently built two GA-EP45-DS3L systems, and they're ooookay. I like the P5Q-E better in the budget segment. Good overclocker too.
