Option 1: Discontinued item
Option 2: MSI G31 chipset mATX board. Solid but basic, cheap.
Option 3: nforce 630i chipset. To be avoided.
Option 4: Gigabyte P31 chipset mATX board. Another solid board.
Option 5: Asus board with nvidia chipset. Neither are desirable for cheap boards.
Option 6: Asus board with G31 chipset. Better, but chep Asus boards are still a bit of a grey area.
Option 7: See above
Option 8: Abit G31 board. Not sure how good this is. Abit have some good and bad products.
Option 9: Gigabyte G31 board. Recommended
Option 10: Inno3D 7100 chipset. Could do far better
Option 11: Gigabyte P31 full size board. Highly recommended.
Option 12: MSI 7100 board. COuld do better
Option 13: Gigabyte G31 small board. Good, but the P31-S3G in option 11 is better
Option 14: Abit 7100 board. See 12
Option 15: As above
Option 16: I'm a bit wary of the quality of ASRock Boards.


Overall, I'd go with:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/141599

This board is from a good manufacturer with a robust chipset, and doesn't have integrated graphics. You don't need integrated graphics for gaming as you have to use a separate PCIe 16x graphics card to get any respectable performance, and if you're into overclocking, integrated graphics will put a stop to that.
