A hardware puzzle

[ChurchOfSubgenius]

OK, heres the deal, I have a few hardware combinations around the house right now and I can't decide what to keep as a main system and what to sell off, what I want to do is list all the items and have a few AT'ers give thier opinion on what I should keep.

Give me your favorite combination and why.

Motherboards:

Abit BX-133 RAID (Socket 370)
Asus K7M (Slot-A)
Soyo BA+ IV (Slot-1)
FIC AZ11 (Socket-A)

Processors:

PIII 700@933 Slot1 (retail, hot)
Athlon T-Bird 750@950 (hot)
Celeron 600@900 ppga (cool)
Duron 600@850 (mid)


Assume I have heatsink/fans and a slocket. The Soyo is a older BX chipset but still a great board while the Asus is an excellent board but Slot-A is quite dead. The AZ11 is a crap board but I could make it to 1.2ghz on it while the Abit is a great board with onboard RAID and tons of clocking fiunctions but it's old BX and selling items to buy a PIII 370 is a strech for me.


OK, whadda ya think.

How sad no one wants to play my mix-n-match game

I'd stick with the Athlon and Asus board.

 

[FoBoT]

i would go with soyo slot 1 mobo and slot 1 pentium 3, out of those choices

 

[ChurchOfSubgenius]

OK, but why?

 

[Spendthrift]

keep the asus and the tbird.

cause ive got an az-11 and i dont like it. the duron is great, but the tbird is faster. and im not big on the pentiums.

 

[CubicZirconia]

I'd keep the tbird too, its got speed.

sell all of it and get a decent XP processor and a good motherboard.
