Hello Again !!!

As i sad in a earlier post...
I am building a smaller recording studio for myself.
And i want to make my recording platform as stable as possible.

I want your advice on which motherboard i should get.
I can narrow the choice down a bit, by telling you that i want to have a motherboard with DDR RAM support and of course i want the CPU to be Intel Pentium.

The system will include a Pulsar 2 and a Powersampler board jacked up together.

So which motherboard would you recomend ???
Speak up Pulsarians.

Best regards Jngaelin

*PS*
Read my other post and vote.
Your advice is needed. =)

actually i don't know what mobo i have, i do know that i have the intel 850 chipset.

my pc is a dell dimension 8200, maybe someone here knows which mobo i have and could share the info cause i can strongly recommend my motherboard.
combined with the rock solid intel chipset of course.

I've got a Chaintech Apogee Intel 845E chipset and that works great. 850E is another good choice but RD RAM is more expensive and DDR RAM you get now can be used on your next dual channel DDR board in 18 months.

I suggest a new 845PE board with DDR333. Get one by ASUS or Epox or Chaintech.

I think Dell mobos are made by MSI.

The ones who really know runs Asus or Intel.
Asus is a bit more flexible and Intel is a tad more stable.

Ahhh those Taiwanese are all together. Who knows what they do. I'd say they get together to maximise profit. Asus is always overpriced and many other manufacturers offer IDENTICAL boards for less.

I remember comparing an Asus branded 486 board to a no brand back in the day and they were carbon copies. Same serial number run and all.
