Go for 965 based motherboards.

Since the Motherboard is one of the critical components of a PC,its selection is important as Processor and RAM

I personally prefer ASUS,MSI or GIGABYTE
Even though they cost a little bit more than their traditional counterparts
the INTELS, its worth a penny as they are enriched with extra features and slots.

Now can u get an idea ?

budget and usage?

P4 doesn't exist as of now except for obselete purposes
