I'm looking for a slot 1 motherboard for an P3 500 I have. I know the slot 1s are getting rare. But I need to know what's a good board/chipset. As far as I know, the processor will only do 100MHz FSB, but I'm using Crucial PC133 SDRAM. So I wouldn't mind doing some overclocking. But thus far, all my overclocking knowledge is with AMDs. Since they're cheaper.
I currently have my PIII 500 running on a piece of crap Intel board from an old HP computer. It has a Matrox G200 on-board, and no AGP slots, so I can't throw my spare GeForce 2 MX400 in there. Basically, it's crap, and I want better. On-board sound would be a plus, since I don't wanna get a new sound card for it.
One caveat: I'm running Mandrake Linux 8.0 on this box. So it's got to be a board/chipset/on-board sound that Linux supports. But I doubt that'll be a problem.
