Cheap AMD motherboard with RAID?

Hardware and technical stuff
#1

I’ve been going over the various sites looking at cheap MBs for my Athlon XP 2200. I’ve been at least considering attempting to solve my problems by partially rebuilding my system.

I really don’t want to get anything too fancy. The Athlon is a 266 FSB CPU if I remember and I’ve only got PC2100 DDR. I really would love to get RAID working though.

At this point I’m not even sure which companies are considered to produce reliable and stable MBs.

How about this one:

or this

Any other suggestions?

The first one you list isn’t Nforce2, it’s a VIA KT333 chipset – you might consider avoiding it.

I believe DFI makes a low-cost NF2 board with RAID that’s listed on Newegg.

Actually I changed my mind halfway through my post.

:D

I wouldn’t mind forgoing nForce2 in favor of RAID.

I’ll check out the DFI board too!

Thanks Lloyd.

You can also try to track one of these down:

Abit NV7-133R

I’m using one, and very happy with it.
