The following is my first home built system (proposed):


---8

$200 Motherboard. Gigabyte GA-8KNXP. 800 MHz front side bus.
Integrated audio. BIOS can undervolt (this isn't confirmed yet) the
CPU which will allow me to possible shave off a few degrees
(cooler=quieter). Underclocking may be required, and is supported.
Heat sensors and intelligent fan control. A separate bus for onboard
SATA means fast access to hard drive for data/media that won't be
interrupted by PCI info (Operating system drives, optical media,
etc.) Onboard sound, firewire and USB.


Try the Asus P4C800-E Deluxe....




Or Asus P4P800, for $100 less...

Minimal advantage, huge price tag for the P4C800.

But, then again this guy is saying 200 bucks, for a motherboard. Either not
cost-concsious, rich, or just doesn't give a flip. So, if he wants to toss
$100, in to the shi****er, I'll stand by your suggestion.

Otherwise, it's foolish and money thrown in the trash.



Sin...
