The Asus A7V333 is an excellent motherboard to look at. Case wise pick up a Chieftec. They look just like Antecs but dont come with power supplies, since you already have one. Looks like a nice system.

I suggest this case CS-5190AL-001
You can find it at www.coolerguys.com (if they ever get their site back up) I'm planning to buy this myself. |

got AMD
Thanks for the two suggestions-taking good look at both--have You had any experience with the AOPEN AK77-8XN board? found it on Memory Labs for $77.00 and looks fairly good but can't find any reviews or info on board other than AOPEN site, of course

My suggestion is EPOX 8K5a2+ . Works great for me on a build one month ago. With an 1800xp. Onboard sound and LAN and I needed both.
Very clean build and no problems since. ---->>> Pat |
