Am I missing something here? These specs already list a motherboard, the (somewhat outdated) ASUS A7V8X board. If you're asking what you should upgrade the motherboard to, I would get an Nforce2 board (like the ASUS A7N8X or Abit NF7-S).

Any help on this would be grateful and thank you for your time and cooperation in this matter

I have cooperated with your query in full. Thank you, come again!

I have been told and read forums that the same problem applies to the A7N8X board as it does to the A7V8X which they are not compatiable. Meaning the ATI Radeon 9700 Pro and the board. If possible are there any Soyo boards out there that would work with that set up and thanks again
