Help a returning sailor catch up...need a new M/B

[harsh]

I recently got back from a 6 month deployment on the Theodore Roosevelt to find out that my computer at the house had a meltdown. Both the motherboard and chip died, therefore I must build a new rig. I am looking for an m/b for an Athlon XP with Raid and DDR333 support. Overclockability would be nice, but stability is more important. Since my rig went down I don't have all of my old links to review sites and my memory has failed me. Plus my next door neighbors laptop that I am using is incredibly slow so trying to surf through the web and find them is extremely time consuming and annoying. Also what ram is the best of the lot right now(corsair, mushkin, etc). Thanks guys/gals and it is good to be back amongst friends.

Check out newegg.com for new and refurbished mobos. They have the ak31a (kt266a chipset) for only $45 shipped, less than half what I paid for it new.
