i always say invest in a good mobo. try 8k7a, some guy in the forums was selling them for $85? forgot.

Looks ok to me. And like Bangsailio, get yourself a good brand name mobo from Epox, MSI or whoever you like.

The only problem with the 8K7A (great board btw) is that is does not have built in video or LAN + it costs more. For my mini server I use an Asus A7VI-VM based on the KM133 chipset + Netgear FA311 NIC. Works great! 2D is excellent although I do not have a keyboard/mouse/monitor connected to it.
