I know this should be in GH but since the desire to cruch more wu's is fuelling this I posted here first.
I've thought about building another pc for awhile. The pc will be for backing up files and crunching seti. I'm thinking about replacing the case of my wife's pc. Therefore, I'd have a spare case, a Duron 750 , a cdrom, and an 80 gig hdd. All I need is a mb, ram, and a kvm switch. I was looking the following motherboards: Asus A7N266-VM and Epox 8KMM3I. I like that they have onboard sound, vid, and lan. I was leaning towards the epox becuase it supports higher fsb than the asus - for any future upgrades. My other question is which ram to get? I don't think pc2700 will be fully utilized by the duron but it gives me room to grow. What do you think?
