recommendations for a top spec AMD mobo Please?

ive had enough with my abit AN52 & the problems i have with lockups when running sata dvd-rw. What im looking for is a mobo that will take my athlon x2 6400 but when i decide to give a quad-core phenom a go this new mobo will be phenom compatible as well.
My PC specs are
abit AN52, AMD6400+, Antec 500W EarthWatts
WD320AAK,WD500AAK,WD500Elements[USB]
4GB OCZ Plat PC2-6400 rev2, Pioneer215, DVD-Rom,
XFX 8600GT {512} ,Themaltake VA9003BWS Kandalf.

Ive got £115 but willing to spend a bit more to find the best mobo that will last a few years yet. Sick of wasting money as tech moves so fast
Thanks for any suggestions
{should i buy another abit board & whats them asus crosshairs like?}

The best place to ask is on the user forums hosted by AMD itself.
