Junk the Biostar for the Asus A7N266-VM AA, your talking 22 bucks more, but you will not be sorry that you didn't get the Biostar. And then spend 15 bucks more and get an XP1700, not only does it have a 266mhz FSB it also is a better performing CPU.

Ok this is the pc for in my arcade. It just needs to be stable enough to be on 24/7. I at first was looking at a chieftec mobo but newegg sold out. I am trying to keep cost down but if I have extra cash I might pick up the xp1700 first and the asus last.
