Afterall the talk about PCI being total crap, I have been looking into a new motherboard. What do you think about this new featured one at newegg.com? It also has a very reasonable price too.

I thought it was nice and I am thinking about getting it.

Its nice.. just don't kill it.

And before you buy it... make sure all your hardware is compatable.

System specs since a month ago:

Intel pentium 4 2.8GHz at 800FSB
2GB Dual channel ram
128 MB ATI Radeon 9200SE
500GB RAID Hard drive
Comcast internet at 4MB

The motherboard looks nice except that it's for Socket 939 AMD CPUs.

Sure, if you want to buy an AMD processor.

Sure, if you want to buy an AMD processor.

Plus to get all the power out of that motherboard you would have to get a 64 bit cpu for that motherboard. If I remember correctly that will almost double your price...

However it is a VERY nice motherboard. I heard AMD had released a new dual 64 bit motherboard. Anyone know where you can buy one of these?

AMD64 CPUs cost roughly as much as the 32-bit CPUs.

I would get this in a heartbeat if I was in the market for a mobo. Of course, you will have to run a amd chip, But then that is not a downer at all. Get the 64 off eBay.
