GRITS takes the Big Leap
#19
We know that you already have the chip and thats intel, but the AMD vs Intel is an old argument. AMD used to be crap, I admit that, they did have problems, but then the DX-2 66 series came along and everything was basically smooth sailing. Both chips are good, both chips will run what ever you want.


The ASUS board looks very good and its a well known name. It has lot of PCI ports, lots of USB, you can put 400mhz ram into it (so I would suggest a at least a gig and no less then 512 specially if you are running windows XP)

It has a lan connection built in (helps keep a PCI slot free)

You will also be able to upgrade the chip for it too once you find the 2.6 ghz gets too slow for you ;)

The ASUS board might be the most expensive, but I feel it would be the best bang for the buck.


The intel board while I bet would work great with an intel chip don't look as good to me as the ASUS board. Its also about 50 bucks cheaper but with that cheaper price you are loosing things.

I have no comment on the 1bit board as I have never heard of it before. I don't like the page for it, its not as detailed as the ASUS one is.


So the short of it is, I vote for the ASUS Pentium-4, i875P chipset,Dual DDR, P4C800, FIREW, SATA
