Been looking around at prices, decided on a 2.4 Amd xp any suggestions on a good motherboard, about £100 to spend

Hmmm... don't know how much £100 is in $USD, but I would suggest a KT400-based board if you can afford it. They've come down a lot in price lately and are the most upgradeable AMD boards right now. Specifically, MSI's KT4 Ultra is a good one.

FYI, KT400 boards can use the 333MHz fsb of the latest AthlonXP's (such as the 2700+ and 2800+), which means a perfect sync with DDR333/PC2700 DDR RAM (notice the 333's match? :D)!

Hi.....

I would definatly recomend the NForce MSI motherboard K7N420 Pro.....

Its yours for about 80 quid if you buy it from the right place....Some people will try and rip you off so beware you can get it for around70-80- quid!

Withthe arrival of the NForce2 chipset the NForce1 has considerably dropped in price, and it is still extremly good quality with great expandability etc.
