Inexpensive PIII Motherboard

[vincey18]

I need to buy a couple PIII/Celeron-2 motherboards, the only requirement being that they are as inexpensive as possible. Intergrated everything is fine, and performance is not very important. No RDRAM 820's though. Does anyone know a good vendor selling these? Thanks

Justdeals.com (link) has a couple 810e chipset boards (integrated audio & video). They have a Soyo s370 board for @$50 and a Abit slot 1 board for @$60. I have a MSI slot 1 810 board in my 'burner box', it does a pretty good job for what I use it for & lets me run my cel 300a at 450mhz.

I have a business out of the house and build many systems. For the low end I use PC Chips motherboards and have had good results with them overall. I would recommend their 771, based on a Intel 810 integrated chip set, or a 758 based on a SIS chipset. Both have 10/100 ethernet, sound, 56K modem, etc. I have had very good results and the performance for a basic workstation is very good. I have been pleasantly surprised and if I have a good board to begin with, they rarely seem to cause problems later. Good luck.
