Good basic mobo

[kuba]

Most basic build, what would you recommend for a mobo, with everything on it?
Just surfing, email, basic stuff, nothing crazy.
CPU will be Athlon 64 3000 (socket939)

What processor would you plan on using?

EDIT: Okay, socket 939... I would go with the Asus A8N-VM. I can't stand VIA chipsets, and I like Asus boards...

VIA chipsets are Intel based?
I've seen them a lot and whenever problems arised, i always saw VIA on the mobo, wasn't sure who made it though.
Thanks for the recommendation.

Would the 2nd on the list be the equivalent I assume?

Yes, and nvidia 6100 / 6150 chipset graphics are good for integrated (much better than intel and via)

There are socket 754 motherboards using nvidia 6100 / 6150 chipsets too, you could save yourself $40+ USD by using a socket 754 / sempron 2800+ - 3000+ instead of the A64.

A sempron 2800+ is more than fast enough for basic stuff.
