From a P4B266-C to which M/B

I currently have a ASUS P4B266-C motherboard with 1.60A P4 processor. I am
looking at possibly replacing the motherboard (for use with faster
processors and Hyper-Threading) and would like to know which motherboard I
should look at. I do not like the "all-in-one" motherboards, since I do not
like to have all the ports onboard.

What can you recommend??

Forget ASUS, altough I'm an ASUS user for quite sometime already
I'm now using the same board as yours.

Check this out :

Been aiming for this board for a few days, looks good and suitable my needs
I'll recommend this one...

I checked out that ABIT MB, and it still has built-in audio and
LAN. Not the "bare bones" MB being sought.

Can it _control_ all the fan speeds? Something ASUS seems to
have abandoned.
