Need help in choosing a mobo


I'm planning on buying a new mobo for my 533 celeron, but need some recomendations on which board to buy. I currently have an Asus CUBX, which cannot overclock the celeron2(which I didn't know until I found this site). I'm just looking for any suggestions as to which board to buy. I'm not too experienced in oc'ing, but I'm willing to take the time to learn, so "Ease-of-use" isn't a problem. Thanks in advance

Look around the cpu database on the opening page, and see what has given the best results. This should simplify your decision a lot!

That's excactly what I've planned ... f*** .. sorry for my newbie-question but is there a reason for that ? I mean what exactly is wrong with that board ?
I played around with the Cel. 566 und the CUBX and the maximum what I've reached is 623Mhz ... ... nice try !

Thanks for your time !
