    what mobo to buy?

    With the recent death of my gigabyte mobo, I have been looking for a replacement. I am finding many boards however that are using DDR ram and not the sdram I use. I spent good paper purchasing two sticks of pc133 sdram sticks and I ain't gonna just ditch them for more expensive ddr sticks.

    Since most of the people here have changed boards multiple times, i need your help finding a motherboard that is close to what I need:

    -at least 2 sdram slots (non-DDR) and capable of supporting 1+ gigs-o-ram
    -socket 478 (pentium 4)
    -at least 4X AGP
    -5 PCI slots, 4 if LAN is on the board
    -floppy support (A: and B: if possible)
    -the usual ide (primary and secondary)
    -ATX form factor

    I know they are out there. They are just hard to find.

    Asus P4S533-X will be your good choice if you can get from market.

      That's a DDR board, hes looking for an SDRAM board. The P4S533 is a good one though, I've got one in a system here, always been solid.

        Support DDR333/DDR266/200 or PC133/PC100 SDRAM.
        No, it can support BOTH DDR and sdram.
        That's okay with me. This means that it's more flexible when it comes to upgrading.

        bummer that ebay don't have one right now. only ram.
