Why 780i...poor overclocker compared to Intel chipsets, and doesn't support Crossfire, making it useless for a high end system.
Anyway, if you're spending that much I'd wait a bit longer for i7, no point in spending that much money only to have it outdated within a month.

What do you need them for? Unless you have a specific application for them such as CUDA, you're wasting money. ATi's entire product line is superior, as well as it's multi-GPU implementation.
I'm going to bed in a sec here so unfortunately I can't pick out a few good boards, but just go to newegg, do an advanced search, and put in the features you need, then when you narrow it down read the reviews until you find the best one for your money.

it's the whole nvidia chipset compared to intel isn't as good for overclockan
though it has some good things like being able to unlink memory/FSB speeds

Antec 900 is Mid-ATX.
Full ATX is the Antec 1200, but I'm unsure if it has a motherboard tray.
