ok, i'm trying to find a C2D board for my new server. i'm looking for a board that will support the new E1200 Celeron essentially. something p35 based i'm assuming?
i would perfer onboard video, but AGP would be doable (a asrock board perhaps?)
it dosent have to be flashy, just 2 sata ports and 2 IDE prefered (1 is fine, but would need 2x pci slots for scsi card and controller)
Most boards today have 1 or no IDE ports so you'll need a board with several PCI slots. And I don't recall seeing an s775 board with AGP in a long while.
These motherboards have onboard video:
Intel G3x boards (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010200280+1070509908+107172317+1075707618&Configurator=&Subcategory=280&description=&Ntk=&srchInDesc=)
Nvidia boards (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010200280+107172444&Configurator=&Subcategory=280&description=&Ntk=&srchInDesc=)

Most 775 boards with AGP will not support anything higher than a Prescott with HT.
I gotta goto the store, when I get back, I will edit the post with a suggestion or two.

Edit: after some searching, two boards come to mind..Gigabytes "P35-DS3L" and Abit's "IP35 Pro" both have onboard video, but no agp....personaly, I would take the agp card and sell it for what you can get..after all Agp is sooo 20th century :)..or use the agp in another old board, and use it for folding, seti, or a game server

on board is fine, the Intel board i seen is something i like, its going to be a combo game / file server. cheaper the better, but i am confident the C2D CellyDC will do what i want it too :)
my current server is ancient, but then again, i got the hardware for free practically :) i'm sure someone here could use it everything is in perfect condition.
