Setting up a new system as follows :
Intel 4 2.8 CPU , 2 x Kingmax 512MB DDR 3200 , Radeon 9200 SE based videocard , Western Digital 80GB hard drive 7200 rpm , Viewsonic VP171b LCD monitor .
Not looking to overclock at all , but interested in stability and good non-overclocked performance . Was originally suggested the Aopen - MX4SG4DN mobo . As this uses the Intel 865G chipset with onboard graphics , I thought better to use an 865PE chipset mobo as no need for onboard graphics . The Aopen is also a micro ATX mobo . The only decent looking 865PE mobo this dealer has is Intel D865PERL . Would the Intel indeed be the better choice here , or possibly the fact that the Aopen is a much newer mobo , makes it better , even with the onboard graphics to be turned off ,and the micro ATX size ?
Another question - would a SATA drive make any difference here ?
