KT266A chipset is the best one.

I recommend the Asus A7V266-E. I've heard 160Mhz + reports when running that board.

The A7V266e is not the only mb that can handle 160mhz fsb... the 8kha+ does it well, too.

I'd go wtih a MB that has a feature set that fits your needs. For a basic, already have your components MB, i'd go with an 8kha+.

The Epox is good...I also like the Shuttle AK31.

Be sure to get a KT266A board.

I read in tomhardware that sis chipset is pretty good and he had a good opinion about the ecs board based on sis chipset. It is pretty cheap but people here seem to have had problems with the board any opinions

I dont know about Epox but I had Epox 8KHA and it's bad .. i'm sad. Now I'm waiting for Abit KG7. Newegg is the best place to buy online!
