A2 Motherboard recomendations?

First of all, please don't even waste time suggesting an Intel motherboard, I won't touch Intel.

Okay, with that taken care of...

I build my own systems and I want to upgrade, but the MB manufacturer that I normally deal with (SOYO) doesn't make a suitable board, and I'm not really sure what to get. So, here's a list of what I need:

--I want to have the ability to upgrade to a dual core processor, but I don't have the money to get one now, so the MB needs to support both types of processors reasonably well.

--I need the board to have the ability to support at least one IDE drive.

--I want at least 3 standard PCI slots.

-- Should have reliable, high quality, 8 channel onboard sound.

--Obviously it should support 16X PCI video cards, and DDR3 memory.

--Cost should be about $150 or under, (I have to pay for more than just a new motherboard here.) but I'd rather pay a little more to get top quality.

So, any suggestions? I'll probably be ordering from www.newegg.com.

Any Asus mb would have all that, they can be kinda odd to boot first time tho (some just sooo dont like a certain memory) , used ati/abit mostly myself, but onboard sound is always blarg compared to a pci -.o; noticed a huge diffrence from my onboard crappy ac97 to a cheap audigy4 Soundblaster.
