List, I've decided that I'm going to upgrade my home server from RH 9 to FC 1 sometime before April. I figure that that may be a good time to also upgrade from my 866MHz Pentium III as well. :) I've been thinking of getting an AMD Athlon 2600+ 333MHz FSB, and an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe mother board. (http://usa.asus.com/prog/spec.asp?m=A7N8X-E%20Deluxe&langs=09) I've seen some potential issues on this list about the nforce2 chipset, so I was curious about any positive or negative experiences anybody might have had with this mother board. If somebody has another recommendation for a motherboard/cpu combo, I'd be interested in that as well. Basically, I'm trying to get a fast motherboard and CPU with about 512Meg of RAM for about $250 US. I'm only interested in good, name brand motherboards and RAM, I've had bad experiences with cheap ECS crap and don't care to repeat the experience. The A7N8X-E Deluxe looks like it can handle two DDR 400 256 for that doubled speed thing, which sounds good to me. I don't really care too much about AGP8x or anything, since it'll be a server, not a desktop game machine. Thanks! Ben
