s754 isnt worth the money saved, in my opinion, nil upgradeablity
my personal reccomendation for a low to mid level gaming system:

a64 3000+ venice (oc'ed) or winnie to save a little $$
gigabyte nf4 ultra OR msi nf4 ultra OR dfi lanparty nf4 ultra
corsair value select 512MB PC3200
that HD is good
any antec, enermax or ocz psu, 350W+

I would advise you to buy a better motherboard if you want to go S754 and PCI-E. Here is the best mobo available for an unbeatable price:

Thanx for ur Help !!!
> well the first problem i have here is that Venice not available in my country only Winchester core , but the ppl here rip the price alot .
> Secondly no enermaz or antec or ocz available here , i have to order it from abraod via credit card .
> and bar81 the K8S-MX has PCI-Express x1 , i need a PCI-Express x16.
> and i choosed the MSI mobo coz its has the AGR , i could use my AGP 8x card then .
> could u quote me a cheaper Nf4 Ultra mobo , i know the Gigabyte and MSI one are good .

Peace & ciao !!!

My bad. Got confused, forgot it was AGP. Check out the new K8N-4 from Asus if it's not out of your budget.

the K8N-4 has 8 SATA Ports , too much for , i most probaly need 2 MAX .
K8N-4 looks kinda better in the Layout and i dunno about the performance .
anybody useing the K8N neo3 or K8N-4 , plz tell ur experience with it .

Peace & caio !!!
