Upgrading System Mobo Suggestions?

Hey,

well its been a while since i've been on this forum but i'm back and a little out of the loop when it comes to the new hardware :S so i was just looking for some suggestions....

What i have right now is:
3gb ocz gold 800mhz memory
Nvidia Quadro fx 3500
AMD Athlon X2 3800+ (OC'd to 2.3ghz)
MSI K9NU Neo
700w PSU

all i am looking to upgrade is my CPU and Mobo... CPU has already been chosen, i am getting the Intel QX6850 since i can get it for only $239 =D what i need help with is i need a mobo that isn't going to cost me a fortune but can sill get me the most out of this CPU.... i mean it is a powerful CPU and i want to get the most out of it hopefully for under $200 at a candian place... if you guys could kind of help me find one at Canada computers or Tiger Direct it would be much appreciated!

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2945261&Sku=E145-2014 this is a good mobo, any nVidia sli is nice, w/ lga 775, so ur processor will work, relatively cheap, it is pretty high performance.
