Could someone please recommend a mobo for the P4 with USB 2.0 support?

[ddeder]

I need to build a computer with a 1.8GHz P4, 256MB RDRAM and USB 2.0 ports.

Does Intel have a website listing recommended motherboards for their CPU's (similar to AMD's website)?

I primarily build AMD based systems. Any help is appreciated...

I don't know of any i850 boards that have USB 2.0. Why don't you just by a seperate PCI USB 2.0 card? They have a really nice one that has USB 2.0 and Firewire.

ddeder, also the 850mvl has it.to find others go to intel.com,clik on p4 then pc builder guide,then use the motherboard selector guide.it will also show you all mobo manufacturer's and give you a choice of options like usb2.0,on board lan,audio,raid&lot's of stuff! it's cool they show other manufacturer's beside themselve's.

Thanks for the replies. Any suggestions on where I can pick up USB 2.0 PCI cards? How about front panel USB/Firewire panels?
