I've looked at a lot of boards and so far the Asrock 890FX Deluxe5CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9) isn't on the QVL, and whether my True Rev.C CPU heatsink with 120mm fan will fit, or will fit but block some of the RAM slots. Mind you, the only board I've seen that looks like the RAM slots have been spaced further from the CPU to avoid this is another Asrock board, the 890GX Pro3 which I'd probably get if the second PCI-E x16 was x8 rather than x4.
The only other board that came close is the Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 but unfortunately that has Realtek ALC889 audio and doesn't support multi-streaming, which rules it out.
EDIT: Hmm, just realised the 890FX Deluxe5 has the CMOS battery in an extremely stupid place, which has rather put me off it :(
