Hi
I've
been looking into building a new PC and after a little bit of research, I saw
that the new Millenium Music PCs are using the Asus P4B533 motherboard (P4
support, DDR ram, 6 x USB 2.0 - �140 etc). They have got good reviews - SOS
rated their PCs highly when they tested them and the mobos seem pretty solid
from the web reviews....
Cheers
Dan
oh yeah check this out. like John said Asus makes
quality shiz, and this guys got dual channel ddr if thats yer thing. i may be
wrong but nforce2 right now is probably your best bet for going forward.

kit???
I have to say that the nForce chipset is good under Xp or XP Pro... But
under Win 2K or 98SE you are not getting the most out of the board. BTW if
you got cash to burn I always buy IBM hard drives. They are the fastest IDE
drives on the planet. I put a IBM ATA 100 drive up against a Seagate Ultra
160 SCSI drive (Adaptec controler card), and the IBM beat it down... by 10MB
per sec though put. IBM has a 16BM cache model that is out or is coming out
soon. I have been a tech for 8 years now. I don't really like MSI or
GIGABYTEmyarse boards... I have found that FIC and ASUS are the best
consumer boards you can buy... If you have any ??? pm me at

amd machine
can easily disable onboard sound on most
motherboards
IDE drives are pretty fast these days, probably don't
need RAID, look into
getting a Western Digital special edition with the
8 meg cache, i just
picked one up and they blaze.
nothings too
big for a hard drive =P
