What's a good AMD motherboard?

I am looking for a good, not too expensive AMD motherboard. I am looking for one that supports both 200/266mhz, and DDR memory. Since I will most likely first be using a Duron, and moving to an athlon later, I am confused about which board to use. This comp will mainly be used for gaming and webdesign(flash,graphics etc)
Thanks
 
If you don't mind the lack of overclocking features, give a shot at:
ECS K7S5A - based on SiS 735 chipset.

I read nothing but good reviews on it so far.

If you are willing to spend some more, look into some of the AMD760-based boards (and see if you can avoid the ones with the infamous VIA 686B southbridge). I just can't recommend VIA boards any more, at least not until their next chipsets are out.
 
hey thanks yeah I heard about that ECS board. I am not sure if I will be overclocking, I've oc'ed with Intels, but never AMD. Thanks again, I'll look into that board. 🙂
 
Yeah not bad for 65$! There are many other boards coming out with the SIS 735 and they al should be reasonably priced!
