which new mobo's to get?

[hydrobum]

I'm just waiting....waiting for a new DDR mobo to get.
Heard the Asus is coming out with a new one soon. Then there's
the MSI KT266 Pro that's already out. Which other mobo's are
coming out in the next month or two that fancies you?

LMK. Thankx

Keep as far away as possible from the kt266 its not ready for prime time yet and may never be, Via is having some problems penetrating the market with it especially since the amd based ddr boards beat it in just about every review and those quirky via problems just continue to occur. The epox ddr board intrigues me and get ready for nvidias nforce chipset based motherboard marketing and probably performance roadshow. We will see..

MSI's new board has the Nvidia chipset and GF2 on it, with Lightspeed memmory from AMD and is suppose to get twice the bandwith as current DDRam platforms.
They have the same implemented in the X-Box
It will come with on board sound capable with 6 channel support and DVD to boot.
It will come as a choice of onboard sound or not implemented in the chipset.
If you can wait a few months to see reviews, I would do that.
