Card and HDD size.

Or do you want a new Mobo ?

In that case, it either needs to be an Intel chipset, or you need to get a new processor (AMD 64 3200 = Mint! .

Intel = ABIT IS7
AMD = Nv150gb LanParty (What I use; great m-effing Mobo)

So you just want a new mobo? No new CPU, right?

The Epox 4pda2+ver.2 seems to be a really stable board. If I were to build an Intel system, this board would definitely be high on my list.

This Epox board just takes all this in stride!! It has a watch-dog function so if you totally screw up your OC, you don't have to take off your side cover and pull the jumper. The Epox just clicks on then off then on and it is reset to default speeds. You can go right back into the bios and tweek some more!! EASY!! This is the best board I have ever had the pleasure of using! Bar none.

EPoX does make nice boards. Almost wish I'da went with one on the Athlon 64 system I just built. My Asus K8V SE Deluxe is nice, but it ain't the best when it comes to overclocking.

MSI makes good boards too, but I'm retarded when it comes to Intel. I've had 1 intel system in the past 8 years or so compaired to like 5 AMD systems. I don't even know where it came from, it just showed up. It was a nice system though, it had a Voodoo 5 and a boat load of ram.
