This is what I am looking for:
Not much of an overclocker;but would like to have the ability to do so--maybe a Raid array somewhere down the road--stability--
don't need the 'latest and greatest'(usually build a new pc every 6 months or so)built in features(usb 2.0, firewire, etc.)
I've narrowed my choices down to these:
Chaintech Zenith 9EJS1($131)--REALLY like this board and it has great reviews-not the newest chipsets though(the green pci slots will look nice in my UV windowed case)
Gigabyte GA-SINXP1394($138)--Has nice features also, newer chipset, good reviews also, has SATA too(+) and dual DDR
Will be putting 512mb Kingmaxpc3200(not the tiny bga) in it--may put a total of a GB if I can afford it..
Any thoughts??Suggestions?? I don't like going with the "standard mobo'--no more than $140.00
Will be purchasing this coming week so much input is needed!!!!
