Hello everyone. I got money now to buy new P4 setup around my pulsar 2 card (goodbye Abit Kt7 :smile: ) I'm just trying to make up my mind what kind of setup should i buy. Here is one that i'm considering.

Motherboard:
ASUS P4B533

Memory:
2 x Kingston 256Mt DDR PC266 32MX64 CL25 DIMM

Processor:
INTEL PENTIUM 4 2.0G BOX SOCKET 478 Northwood

Or is Asus P4B266 better choice? What about memory? Someone sayd that i would better get CAS 2 memory?

Looks like good stuff, pairing an Intel chipset with an Intel CPU will give you a nice robust system for heavy PCI usage. The i845 with PC2100 DDR support.

I tend to lean towards Crucial/Corsair/Mushkin RAM, but Kingston should be fine too. Also note you can lock the PCI bus in the BIOS on this board, making it a little easier to overclock.
