Motherboard/Processor Advice

Hey guys,

I'm thinking about installing a new motherboard and/or processor in my machine. What I've got in there now is an AOpen AX3S(Pro) and an Intel Pentium IIIE 800MHz. I was thinking about upping the pocessor to an AMD Sempron 2500+ or 2800+. I'm not positive on which motherboard this would fit in to, so if anybody could help me out on that I'd appreciate it. The motherboard has to have 4 or 5 PCI slots and an AGP slot for my NVIDIA video card.

Thanks a lot,
John

socket a semprons suck, they are simply an older model athlonxp with a new name (throughbread-B core, no heat spreader, so a badly placed heatsink/fan will damage it) its not very overclockable either. if sempron is the must for you, go for the socket754 sempron 3100+ (which is an athlon64 minus the 64 bit part of it)
