AMD ME!!
I thinking about re-building another computer, well, not really.
More like in a way building a new one, I have a 2000+ I'm not using, and soon I'll have some ram I won't be using anymore. The problem is what board, the ram is Kingston Value Ram PC3200 (DDR400) I just ordered Kingmax PC2700 for this P4, cause I'm going to use the PC2100 for my Dual Xeon 2.66 GHz and I ordered a total of 512MB in two sticks, of course for using Dual Channel modes. The Kingston is 2x128 for a total of 256 MB What I'm thinking is maybe Gigabyte Dual Bios MB. My 8IG1000 Pro has always been good for me, maybe I should get another one, but for an AMD. I also read somewhere that MSI Has a few "Really" Good MB's, but with less cost then a Gigabyte. Much Thanks In Advanced. Dennis E Strausser Jr (Denny. :-) |

I'd be looking for the newest nforce2 chipset mobos with the new features
nvidia announced recently. Either that or dump it all and get a good 754 motherboard and 2800+ athlon64. rms |

The one I had been looking at on newegg.com had a Dram Clock Option, not many AMD Boards have this from what I know. I don't know if it means you can change the bus speed though, if you can, it makes it a Very good MB for everything. Almost might as well get two, and use the other one for my AMD 2200+ Denny. :-) |

And since that there's the 64Bit Chips out there, it's taking heat off of even stuff like this. That is a very sweet board. And costs less then 100$ on newegg.com Denny. :-) |

Looks like the 754 will be the new socket for the athlon and the 939 will replace the 754 athlon 64 sockets. The 939 is their socket of choice for their performance CPU's. DOUG |
