I'm lost, I've been to CDW and they seem to be an HP/Compaq outlet. I've been to Dell and I get so confused with all the pricing, that seems to be inconsistant. For example I can upgrade a lower end server and it'll cost more than the same system configured from a higher model.

I've been to and called a few PC shops near my home and they seem to be lost, they are reviewing adds and prices that say, Prices good till 6/30/2003, geeze, it's nearly 7/30! Their web sites are out of date as well.

Anyway, I am looking for a Mother Board that has the following features:

- Dual AMD Athlon, speed is not important, 1.8 or better
- Best FSB for package, the hightest is not important
- IDE DMA 133, min Raid 0
- Onboard Dual NIC, min 1GB on one port, or none and I'll add a card
- Onboard Video digital out or I'll add a card that has it
- Onboard sound minimal requirement
- No overclocking requirements
- The MB should be compatible with Windows Adv. Server and MSSQL database

Please add items that you feel would benefit this system

TIA

Aren't there new NVidia NForce3 mobos that fit this description? Although they might just be for Opterons. You might want to look into them though.
