short and simple question, but I'm still getting stumped.
I'm looking to build a new system and have everything I want but the motherboard. I have an AMD CPU and I don't know if I should go with the KT133A or should I venture into the DDR arena. Price wise I know there isn't much difference, but I want something that will last and be good under overclocked and "normal" use.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Sincerely,

Go with a DDR board (and memory). DDR will be around longer that SDRAM, provides a boost in performance, and is the same price as PC-133. You could either go with and AMD760 based MB, (i.e. Epox 8K7A, Abit KG7...), or wait a bit for Asus to release their KT266 solution based on a new revision of the chipset.
