johnathan.. i believe the best combo in terms of motherboards and CPUs (last i heard atleast) was ABIT for AMD and Asus for Intel based chips
something about the architecture of the respective chips best suits each other in terms of stability and such

asus and intel is the best for overclocking....and very solid. But intel motherboards and intel cpu's still do excellent together its just not as easy to overclock
