Why would you use XP? Its a completely obsolete OS. Nobody uses XP and no developers makes any more software for it. All of them are towards Windows 7 and 8.

Besides building a new PC with XP is a terrible choice. You can't use more than 4gb of ram since XP limits it.

Two questions:

1: Why go for XP?
2: Why only ASUS?

There may be some software that requires XP, but very little. There are also other good motherboards out there besides ASUS; Gigabyte and ASRock come to mind.
