MoBo for P4 with Intel Chipset: Any suggestions?

synthetic · Post by **synthetic** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 1:52 am

I'm looking for a new motherboard, ASUS P4P800, P4P800 Deluxe or something...
Anyone who uses such models. It's HARD TO FIND motherboards that 2 Pulsar-2 Cards will fit.
Any suggestions?

What about this one?

Asus P5P800, Intel i865PE chipset, 5 PCI slots, 8x Agp, S-Ata, Ultra DMA and GigaLan... it seems perfect and it's very cheap too at the moment (got mine for 88 euros)...

I've bought it and I'm building up my 2 CW cards system right now with a P4 3Ghz processor and my old AGP graphic card...

I'll let you know my impressions but I'm pretty sure it'll do the job...

I'll do that for sure stardust...

For example I think that the onboard audio card will be never turned on...

For me it was the perfect solution: I can use my old AGP graphic card and my old hard drives and I'm ready for the new S-ATA technology if I'll need it... I've bought Mobo + P4 3Ghz and 1GB Ram for 325 euros and got a heavy upgrade at my old PIII system at a really good price...

I'm really happy

I just bought a P5P and it works perfectly.
