Best mobo for 1.6A P4 CPU?

I am leaning towards Abit because I want to do some mad OCing. What motherboard would you suggest for this CPU?

I'm using an MSI 645E Max-C motherboard. Just got it recently.

SiS 645DX Chipset
Pentium 4 1.6A
ATA/133
RAM supports up to 3GB
onboard sound

So far I've OC'd it to 2.3GHz. I pulled it back to 2.1GHz for now. It runs good, also overclocked the RAM. No problems so far.

Just to give you another option.

That is supposedly a great mobo, but it is a little overkill for a 1.6A P4 with 400 mhz bus.
