    Exclamation RDRAM & MB

    Got a questiona and hoping someone
    who reads Sharkey's site would know
    what to recommend.

    What I need to know, is what MB to buy
    if i plan on using RDRAM.
    I plan on buying a P3 800 with the 133mhz
    bus.
    I got 128mb of RDRAM for a steal of a price.
    So I am going to be using that in the system
    that I build. (got it less than SDRAM from a friend...)
    My dilemma is what Mother Board to get with 133mhz bus.
    It has to be a P3 compatible MB because from my understanding is that Athlon doesn't support RDRAM.

    Anyone recommend one to me?
    I plan on using this system for audio and gaming.
    4X AGP would be nice too =]

    I was looking on pricewatch, and I see that a company called Next International is offering an ASUS P3C-E and Pentium 800EB MHz
    combo for $465. I think it's going to be difficult to do much better, while maintaining quality.
