Computer suggestion

[Oxy]

I am building a new computer. I want some input in to what to get. I will get a amd xp2700 333.
What chipset and mobo should i get. I am mostly concearned about stabillity.
Should i get via or nforce?
One board i am interessted in is Gigabyte GA-7VAXP1.2, any input on that board would be appreciated.
For videocard i can spend about $150. Should i get radeon or Gforce?

nforce2 (i have a 8rda+) with a 9500pro would be nice.

The Epox8rda+ get so so reviews by users in newegg.
I want a really stable mobo, i am not going to oc.

 

[Zarick]

all the nforce2 boards got so so reviews. Some good some bad.

my epox is pretty stable. *shrug*

 

[HappyCracker]

my kt400 is stable (abit at7 max2). no hiccups whatsoever

the vast majority of people will recommend the nforce-2 board, and i count myself among their number.

asus a7n8x for mobo. for the video card, use what you got now and wait. the next few months is going to be very interesting. but i bought myself a 4200 to ride it out, probably a mistake, but when i upgraded the 3.3v voodoo5 would not work in a 1.5v agp slot

Get yourself an n-force2 motherboard. Either the Epox 8rda+ or the Asus a7n8x

Or try out one of the nForce2 Abit NF7 boards. They offer alot of features and they're very overclockable.

I like Abit, ASUS, and MSI boards. Nforce 2 is the hot setup

I'm intrigued by the Via KT600 chipset, particularly the single channel mem controller with mem bandwidth that challenges the NForce2 boards.

I hope we'll see some reviews in June.
