They are all NForce 2 chipsets- pick the board that has the features you
want. The AN7 has good onboard sound (SoundStorm). I built a system on that and am pleased with it. Memory: All of your choices make a line of quality memory....I would stay away from the "Value" lines. Get the best you can afford (check out the Mushkin Level 1). Minimum of 512MB...a GB wouldn't be wasted. Two sticks (i.e. 2 X 256 MB) to use the dual channel capability of the NForce 2. Fitz |

Try to find complaints about incompatibilities between your favorite mobo and your favorite memory. Since you aren't overclocking, you shouldn't have to pay much of a premium for memory that works. |

OK, got it?...or should we review further? Fitz |
