I got a great deal on a P4 1.7GHz CPU (read: free ), and now I'm looking for a motherboard to go with it. I already know I want it to be an i850 chipset based board, but I have no idea on which one to get. I do not care about overclocking, since I feel that at these speeds its not worth possibly sacrificing stability for 200MHz more.
So:
- i850/RDRAM chipset
- High stability
- Upgradability (ie support for new CPU's)
- Good support (ie regular BIOS updates)
I saw the Intel D850GB, which appears not to be very expensive and according to Anand its a very stable and fast board. Would this be a good buy keeping my needs in mind?
-AB-
