New Motherboard

[skywhr]

I need a new MB looking for suggestions. I am partial to ABIT but not definately looking for an ABIT board.

Processor you will be using will be a small help.

Currently I have celeron 500 am looking to upgrade to a 800eb chip though

Also I would like to spend $100.00 or less if at all possible

Abit bx133 RAID

i LOVE this board! i have it in two of my machines. they have an ATA 100 RAID controller which when coupled with two or more ATA 66 or 100 drives in a RAID 0+1 configueration makes for ultra fast disk acsess. they are also great for overclocking as they come with ABIT's soft menu III which lets you change the FSB in 1 Mhz incrments all the way up to 200 Mhz, as well as all the appropriate voltage setings. i have two celeron II's at 566 Mhz in each machine both overclocked to 850 Mhz. so if you want a great board that overclocks stabliy then this is it. and at around $120.00 it's not too expensive either.

That board looks good but I would like 4x AGP to accomodate my new vid card
I was looking at the Abit SA6R
Does anyone have experience with this board?

since u aren't too attached to ABIT, try this:

ASUS CUSL2. The board was buggy at first. With the new bios update, I am rockin...
