Buying a new processor... what motherboard to get?

I am looking into doing total system upgrade.

The processor will be a 1.33Ghz Tbird (266)


the boards i am looking at are:

Asus A7M266 (AMD 761 & VIA VT82C6876B)
Asus A7A266 (ALI M1647 & M1535D)

Which board would preform the best? I havent seen much on these boards so thats why i am posting here.
Thank you
 
The a7m266 isn't that a micro with lots of stuff on board? Is that what you want? I wouldn't get the a7a266 because of ali chipset is not the best. a7v133 is a good board and so is the microstar.
 
Those board, to my knowledge, do not have DDR support and that is what im looking for really.

[Added]
The A7M266 is an ATX board also.
 
What you gave heard is false. If you download the manual and go to page "60" it shows that if you select User Define then it will allow you to change it.

If anyone has some input of knows something otherwise. Please let me know.

The main thing im lokoing for is a nice DDR motherboard from PC2100 ram. Thank you...
