In that case, i would recommend you try a Supermicro board. They have long been an Intel only manufacturer, but it looks like they are starting to do AMD as well.

Something like this board would be suitable: http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/motherboard/Opteron/HT1000/H8SSL-i.cfm All the products can be found here: http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/
