    New Mobo

    Yo!

    I'm looking at upgrading mt current PC. Well only Mem, CPU, and Mobo.

    Whats a good board to go for? The CPU i will prob. go for is the the P4 3.06Mhz 800mhz fsb.

    One board that looks ok is the MSI 875P Neo. Whats a good chipset to look out for?

    I've seen these's new P4 EXTREME CPU's, do they need any new kind of mobo to work?

    Last but not least whats a good memory brand to opt for??

    Cheers guys

    might be worth holding on for now and wait for the PCIExpress boards to come out. Its the new standard for PCI and its bloody fast should see some boards appear over the next few months with it on. Well worth the wait! Also the P4 is a dead end upgrade path at the mo..intel are changing the socket again so you wont have much choice for upgrades in the future. AMD 64bit chips seem to be the best bet at present.
