Not much point in you getting an nforce Mother board if your gonna put a ATI graphics card in it?!

My advice, keep it AMD(best for games) Intel are over priced. An asus MOther is prob a good call and to be honest there is little in it between a radeon and Geforce. If your building your PC for HL2 tho then stick with ATI.

I have a Shuttle case with an nforce 2 ultra, 512mb ram and a geforce 5700 ultra. Doom 3 here we come!!
The car in front is absolutely unique apart from the one behind it which is exactly the same. Murray Walker

Yeah,asus is the best mboard 4 u.but i advise you to spend a little more money and go 4 a barton 3000+ with 400fsb and 512 kb l2.because it has great overclocking potential.and its multiplier is one of the lowest,10.5x ,so that you can easily make it a 3200+ with mild overclocking.and 2700+ has a not so good thorton core with only 256kb l2 ,2800+ has a lower fsb ,333mhz clock,so more Bottlenecks than 3000+ if u consider a intel go 4 a p4 3.0e which has 800fsb ,so less bottlenecks with a asus motherboard.
