    Post New Gaming Server - Mobo Suggestions - Needs 3GB MAX DDR RAM support

    Im building a gaming server and need suggestions on a motherboard. I want one that is under 200.00 and it needs to support 3 DIMM of 1GB PC2100 DDR RAM. If there is something cheaper and as good as 3GB PC2100 DDR RAM I would like to know about it and a mobo for it. Oh yeah.. the mobo needs to be Socket A and have 4XAGP.

    Please Help! I need to decide by Monday.

    What in the world do you need 3GB of RAM for? Game servers only require 256 or so.

    He probably need to for a corporate server.

    BTW, I don't think a mobo exists for under 200

    there is no possible way you will find that kind of mobo for under 200
    try something else
    and a server with 1.5gig is still the best

    Go for one of the new Dual AMD baords with the 760MPX chipset. I know the Tyan Tiger (760MP) sells for around $235 or so...not only will it support all the RAM you want, but you can put two CPUs in it!
