I've had pretty good luck with the MSI K7N2 Delta-L with the Ultra 400 chipset. You only want to run at 333 but the board is capable of 400+. The nice thing about this board is you can pick them up for $75... one of the best buys around!

I just built a system with the MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR, it's "sweet", the ILSR version adds the MCP-T southbridge with a VERY good sound processor (better than Creative), on-chipset 10/100 NIC, on-chipset SATA, on-chipset 1394 Firewire. It's a bit pricier than the -L version, but those features mean you'll probably buy less hardware for this board as time progresses.
