PIII mobo's et. al.

[spoogenet]

Ok, few PIII questions here, but first, the requirements.

PIII, socket, SDRAM (we no need no steenkin RDRAM), onboard ATA-66 or higher, Intel chipset.

So the questions:

1. Which chipset does what, and which to get?

2. Which board? I like Abit and Asus, but not sure which ones reign champ in this arena.

3. Any good boards with onboard SCSI to look for?

4. Anybody wanna help pay?

Ok, so the 4th is a stretch, but I figure the others shouldn't be too much to handle. Quite frankly I don't have a lot of time to go digging through old discussions etc to filter out what to get and what not to get, so I would appreciate any help here.

Thanks,

Abit BX-133 RAID (i440BX, ATA66 x2, ATA100/RAID x2, AGP 2x)

Asus CUSL2 (i815e, ATA100 & AGP 4x)

Asus CUBX (i440BX, ATA66 & AGP 2x)

U-pick.

Myself, I'd go for either an Abit KT7 or Asus A7V with an AMD Thunderbird.

If you wait a month or two ASUS will have a new CUSL2 (best i815 board) with integrated ultra160. Network as well I think.

Well, if it were me I would also prefer the Thunderbird, or anything AMD over Intel. But it's not for me.

BTW, anybody know when boards with USB2.0 will be coming out?

Thanks,
