    Will you be going AGP or PCI-E for your graphics?

    In my opinion the Nforce chipset is far supiror in design compared to the VIA... So, the MSI K8N NEO PLT 2 is the only option...

    Thumbs up Mobo choice

    Havent really given the agp/pci-e much thought. For me though as pci-e is a bit off yet and agp will be here in force for quite a while yet I will probably go with agp. I will give all your preferences a good browsing and now have a good idea of what are the main contenders.
    Thank you again for helping me out, it is really appreciated.

    PCI-e a bit off? I don't think so m8! It's getting to be that there are more choices for PCI-e VCs than AGP at some retailers. It is true that utilization of PCI-e bandwidth will be some time off, but PCI-e's definitely here now "in force"!
