Which P4 board???

I'm getting ready to build an economical P4 system with a few leftover parts for a friend. I seriously doubt it will be overclocked. It will have 512mb PC2100 ram, a WD 80gig hd (with the 8 mb cache), a GF2 Ultra video card, cdr-w, and dvd. I was leaning towards the Asus P4S533. Is this a good choice for a stable, dependable, low-cost motherboard?
Any other motherboard suggestions?
Thanks for your help & input.
 
its a general consensus that that MB is a good reliable way to go. recently AT also voted the Gigabyte 8IEXP to be the best P4 MB. read their review on their main page. the Gigabyte 8IEXP costs about $135 shipped. so it's fairly cheap and good.
 
Check out the Epox 4G4A+... it has LAN/Sound/RAID stability and the best overclocking board around if you decide to get an econonmical 1.6A and OC it. =)

The board is stable as a rock and you can get it for ~$130 shipped at Outpost.com...
