Need new board for my Venice 3200+

[Cr0nJ0b]

I need to replace a server and I have an extra Venice sitting around...so the question is what motherboard do I match it with?

I needs lots of hard drive support, so at least 4 ATA Drives and 4 SATA drives. I don't care about SLI and I won't use any onboard RAID. I probably won't overclock it either...I'm just looking for something cheap and reliable..

thanks in advance.

Hi,

first, you might want to double check that your Venice is socket 939, they also made a socket 754 version of it:

All these socket 939 boards have 2 PATA connectors for 4 IDE:

So do these Tyan boards, higher quality (server) than the above:

I dunno, I have the EPOX 9NPA+ ultra. Its been a great rock solid mobo for me. I run it with a 3200 venice @ 2.5ghz. Its been a great cheap combo.


Theres alot of boards out there tho.
