    Well, my giga-byte 7gaxp board is dieing and almost dead. i'm back in the market for a new motherboard and perhaps a processor if the price is right. My problem is that my budget is only around 150, and i want to use everything minux the board and maybe processor in my next computer. this means, i have 4x sticks total of 512mb strips DDR400 ram begging to be used in dual channel mode.... lol. anyways, i want to know what the fastest motherboard/processor/heatsink-fan combo i can get is, for 150 bucks (and that's a hard maximum there, i cannot go over that). Dual processor would be totally awesome, but unfortunitly i cant do that cause the ncch-dl board is 230+ bucks... but at the moment i'm looking at the Soyo KT880 motherbaord cause it supports all my hard drives and optical drives, is dual channel, and i can get a 333mhz fst Athlon XP 3000+ combo from Newegg for 114 bucks after rebate..... can anyone recommend me something faster than this for such a low budget? Thanks!
