I've been somewhat removed from upgraditis, but it has recently hit me again, and I desperatly need to retire my old PII400/440BX. Unfortunately, I haven't had time, nor want to keep up with the changes in the past few years, and particularly the quality of brands available.
So, I'm hoping someone could share some advice/opinions on i850/478 mPGA motherboards. Currently i've been looking at two particular boards, the Intel 850MV (Audio/No Lan), or the Asus P4T-E (No Audio/ No Lan).
Has anyone had any positive/negative experiences with either of these boards? Or other brands/models you would recommend? I'm not concerned about overclocking (or negligible performance differences), just a rock solid board, that will hopefully provide me with a decent capacity for future upgrades.
I appreciate any information you can provide,
