i have a sony vaio, that i'm fixing to buy a new motherboard for, i messed the one up that's in it, freak accident that i will not go into, but the cpu and ram and everything is good.

specs:

p4 2.6ghz ht - socket 478
pc2700 ram
agp card
fsb 800mhz

basically, i need a board that will handle the 2.6 ghz p4 and my pc2700 ram and will fit in my tower. i'm just using regular ata drives.

i've been looking at the [S=http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.html?i=1814[/S]https://ASUS P4C800 Deluxe[/S]

i'm not wanting to spend a huge chunk of cash, but i want something good, not a $30 cheapy. around $50 - $170.

thanks.
