I would reccommend looking for a a good processor and mother board combination. Last week I got an Athlon Thunderbird 1.2 Gig processor and a Soyo mother board for $269 US dollars. The FSB is 266 and the processor uses PC 133 memory. I see a big difference from the Athlon Slot A 900 that I was using. It was on an FIC board w/an FSB of 200 mhz and it used PC100 memory. So, again, I say look for a good combination and go w/that. I think you'll be very satisfied if you do. I know I was.
sincerely,
