    If you want a board that handles DDR and SDR, the only one that I know of is the ECS K7S5A, which is a sis 735 chipset based motherboard, and is very cheap, around $55. As far as a CPU is concerned, I'd recomend that you go for something in the Athlon XP 1800+ range, but make your decision on how much you want to spend for the speed you get. Edit: DONT GET A P4 WITH SDRAM. They are incredibly slow, as the lack of memory bandwidth castrates the P4 core...
