What's the best board for the celeron cu533a?

I have it on an ASUS CUBX and it seems to both seem to disagree with each other?

Of course, I could get another chip...but I don't want to explore that right now...HELP!

What do you mean by they both disagree with each other?

I dont know what board is the best for a Celeron, but CUBX would be my top pick, if that doesnt work, try the Asus CUV4X.

I heard from a couple threads that cubx boards have problems with celeron2's...
I had some freezing problems, brought the comp to a comp shop, spent $90 to hear that the problem lies with my sound card...minor solutions were tried(mainly shifting sound to another pci slot and overclocking to 666, event though that brought the pci clock to 41.65), to no avail...

My Rig:

celeron 533a
cubx mobo
128M crucial ram
voodoo3 3000 agp video
sb live value sound
linksys 100 nic
10G western digital 7200 udma66 hdd
32X garbage cdrom
golden orb fan
Windows 98 SE

MS Explorer optical mouse(USB) would sometimes just shut off, usually would just lock...
Certain web pages with high graphics would seem to confuse the video - bad refresh - eventually lock and can't CTRL-ALT-DEL.

If anyone has another solution to my major problem, please let me know...
Do have a PIII 750 coming, but if this is not the right solution, I took the wrong $170 path...

Help!!
