I just purchased a new MB (Asus A7V133) and processor (Athlon 1.0 GHz) around which I will be building up a new system.
I currently have enough spare "compatible" hardware devices to put together a system, but they are not the devices I will be using in the "final" configuration.
In the meantime, I'd like to put the MB and Processor into operation. But, I'd prefer not to mount the MB and all of the "spare" hardware in a case knowing that everything (including the case) is going to be changed in the very near future.
So, I am considering just "breadboarding" a system for now. By "breadboarding" I mean connecting the power supply and drives to the MB while it's spread out on a desk and (obviously) not mounted in a case.
Any words of wisdom will be greatly appreciated.
