So, I sold my WoW account :p and now I'm going to get some new PC parts.

I'm still an AGP n00b so this is my first time purchasing a PCI-E mobo.

I currently have a AMD 64 4800+ and need some info one which mobo would be best to buy.

I currently have a eVGA 8800GTS in my shopping cart and now just need a new mobo and maybe a stick of 1gb memory.

So here's some option thats I've researched and read good reviews about :

If you have a better suggestions please mention, I honestly don't want it to be more expensive, either cheaper or the same and yes SLI compatible.

Now how big of a PSU would you recommend? I currently have a 450, hopefully thats enough some benchmarks of power consumption:









Not sure if I'm actually going to plan on over clocking, but I saw that it does show some mean rates with it running at 630/1.96.



Any help and suggestions would be great

Hey there, I just built my new system recently. Its running with an Asus P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe motherboard, a Pentium 4 3.20Ghz, 1GB of Corsair DDR2 675 ram in Dual Channel mode, Geforce 7300 GT 256MB PCI Express graphics card. I'm using my older hardware that I been using on the older system which is the Sound Blaster Live Platinum 5.1 and the WinTV PVR tuner card. Plus a 80GB and 100GB ATA100 Hard Drives. This board supports Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme CPUs and its built for SLI. Though I only have 1 graphics card, I don't plan to run the system with SLI until I get a bigger monitor in the future. Its a great board, But I would suggest you get the new Nforce 680i motherboards that are Quad Core ready. Check them out here. To check out my motherboard, Click here.
