    Question Motherboard & HSF recommendation

    Can anyone recommend a mobo for an Athlon 3000+ 333fsb chip?

    Idealy with Sata, has to be AGP

    Also can anyone recommend a good HSF combo for the chip as at present its idling at 50c!

    Thanks

    [Edit I'm assuming you mean socket A by 3000+ 333 fsb]

    How about this
    Abit AN7 nForce2 Ultra 400FSB USB2 A133 SATA Raid 8xAGP DDR400
    http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/produ...uct_uid=104486
    £26
    and this
    Akasa AK-825, Socket A up to XP3400+, 17.23 - 40.90 dB(A)
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=129199
    £7.92

    Scan don't seem to have any socket A motherboards in stock.
