Is the Abit KG7-RAID a good motherborad?

Whats the difference between it and other good Abit AMD XP mother boards? WHat other good mobos are there?

At computerhq.com they have AMD Athlon XP 1800+ Retail Box w/ fan PLUS Abit KG7-RAID Motherboard for $200.

Is that a good deal?

Does the Abit KX7-333R AMD Socket A KT333 chipset mobo have USB Ports?
it says "On board USB header for two extra USB channels"
What does that mean?

Yes. The AMD761 has proven itself to be a relatively fast & stable chipset in the past BUT is now considered very old & if you were to buy a new MoBo you should really take a look at the newer VIA chipsets like the KT266A133, KR7A-133R, & KT333, KX7-333R or AT7-MAX, which will give you more performance/speed/reliability/stability.

Your going to have to take a look around to get the best deal. I do not live in the USA so I can not give you reliable information except for looking at Pricewatch for individual parts & check to see if your combo adds up.

Yes it has 2 USB ports near the mouse & keyboard ports for you to use & it also has an extra channels that you can use, headers on the MoBo, with either a front USB plugs in a so equiped case or the supplied connector that terminates to one of your PCI slots. This gives you a total of 4 USB ports.
