Which mobo to buy

Anyone have any ideas on a decent board to buy for a family computer. All it
would be used for is the internet basically. So it doesnt need to be full of
any specs or anything.,
Thanks - Mike

This one. You don't say for which cpu or ram you will be using.

Total overkill for what he intends to use it for.
A KM400 based all in one board and cheap Athlon or Duron would more than
suffice for those duties along with a substantial savings in cost.

for the price of a celeron, you could have an Athlon 2200+
Then plop it into an A7N8X board....

or some board with good ratings...

How do you know he is using AMD? Sure, if he had said AMD I could find
a cheaper solution too. How do you know he doesn't already have a vid
card and sound card? Personally, I think the original poster is a
troll and just answered it for the hell of it.

.....your not worth it

It doesnt really matter if its Intel or AMD. I was just waiting on board
suggestions before i decided on the components

Well he didn't say he was using a P4 either stupid.

Sure, if he had said AMD I could find a cheaper solution too.

Even if he was using a P4 already you still could have suggested a cheaper
P4 board, in fact you can find cheaper (by few $$) P4 equivalents to what I
suggested. Either way... P4 or AMD he doesn't need a board like you
suggested for the task he outlined he needs it to perform "All it would be
used for is the internet basically. So it doesnt need to be full of any
specs or anything."

Though the question is totally irrelevant to what was asked it wouldn't
matter even if he did have those as they can be transferred just as easily
to an all in one board which is bloody cheaper anyway and just as capable in
Internet tasks as the one you suggested stupid

Pull your head out your arse and examine the headers before making such
moronically stupid claims, besides the posts not originating from the same
isp, the isp's themselves are on different continents

You could always get a I2DMR-8G2 E8870 Itanium2 U320 2xGETH EATX MB for
the low, low price of around $1,600.00 and a pair of Itanium2 processors
1.4ghz/1.5mb cache for around $1,400.00 each. Lol, just kidding.

Well, he didn't say he wanted to use an AMD cpu either, idiot.

Show me one P4 mb cheaper at that website I used.

Yea, but the thing is, dumbass, they are all "full of specs" no matter
how much you pay. The mb I chose is just a good clean and rock solid
mb for a reaonable prices. What kind of idiot is going to knock that
choice?
