Here's my thoughts...
I want to go with a Intel "Northwood" Chip on a Asus MotherBoard preferably... Possibly a Abit IT7 but stearing more towards Asus...
Do I get a Asus P4S533 645DX Chipset Motherboard and put a 2.2 Gig 533 FSB Northwood chip with DDR PC2700 Ram and overclock at a later date? (Should be Excellent Performance, I'm planing on buying in September so the 533 FSB 2.2 chip should come down in price by then...)
Or do I go with a Asus 845E / or 845G Chipset and put a 1.8A or 2.0A Northwood Chip with DDR PC2100 Ram and overclock it sooner?
I would prefer DDR pc2700 ram over Rambus, or should I just get a I850 Chipset with Rambus with a 1.8A or 2.0A and be done with it?
Lastly... maybe I do like AMD_Man and put a Northwood "B" chip on the Abit IT7 board with DDR 2700 Ram...?
Hmmm... to many choices...
Thanks in advance for your help guys...
