Looks pretty good, but why not go for a ddr system? You could get the asus a7m266 mobo, or there is one by epox that is great, can't think of the name at the moment.

I was lokking to go DDR, but The A7M266 is more money and I'm trying to save a little.
The last time a checked, there was a $50 difference between the A7v133 and the A7m266.

Has anyone seen or heard about the A7V133-C. I was at Asus's website and it looked pretty good.

Get the Epox 8K7A it should be comparable in price to the mobo that you are looking at, although I haven't really looked at prices lately. So I am not 100 percent sure on that.

If you read the threads here on motherboards, people here like the Epox 8K7A a lot! The MSI K7 Master is also a popular choice.

I wouldn't hesitate in going for the Epox if I was you.
