I havn't built a new system in some time, so I'm overdue...plus I'm behind the times when it comes to what's what. For instance, would it hurt performance to use an ATI graphics card with a nvidia chipset on a mobo?
My budget isn't insane this time around, but I do know of a few things I must have:
1.) 2 x Raptor 36.7GB SATA drives on a RAID 0
2.) Athlon XP Barton 400fsb
3.) Dual Channel DDR400
Well I checked out the SOYO SY-KT600 and it looks promising, but nothing in the specs says anything about dual channel DDR. Is there a similar mobo that includes this feature? I'm sticking with an ATI graphics card, but the mobo chipset is not too important to me. Any advice is appreciated, thanks.
