Help with putting together a $600ish system

What would you guys recommend for an nF3 board? I plan on keeping my 9800Pro for a while. Also, I have two large IDE drives I'd like to keep using, and burners and whatnot, so good IDE still matters.

Do you know the model of the Gigabyte NF4 board? I looked earlier but couldn't find it. I haven't checked Gigabyte's page yet.

It's 113€ here, but cheaper than even nF3 S939 boards.

I was just going to post the Newegg link

OK, so it is $125 at newegg. Looks like an interesting board. I haven't really looked into PCIe yet. I guess I'll have to start digging in

He wasn't very picky. Everything went very smooth. I scrapped off the crappy thermal puddy and used Artic Silver. WinXP installed without a hitch. Very nice motherboard.
