Athlon 1.4 with 256 DDR Ram! What's the best MotherBoard?

[Devi8r]

I am in the near future going to be buying a Athlon 1.4mhz and 256mb of DDR 266mhz Ram, what would be the best motherboard for the job, and also a decent heatsink and fan? It's mainly used for playing power hungry games, so things will probally get hot.
Any help would be great!

epox 8k7a is a good bet.

Lol, can't you tell? The Epox 8k7a, the board in the title of almost every thread. =]

But seriously, from what everyone around here says the Epox is the best board. An alternative to that board would be the Asus A7A266, it's not as good as the Epox but it is still an excellent board. (If you get this one make sure it has 10 dipswitches and not 4.)

As for a good HS/F, I'd look into the Glaciator, or the Gladiator. Both perform well and are inexpensive, if your afraid of heat then get either one with a Delta 38.

Hope this helps.

Epox seems to be the board of the Month right now.
