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

If your video card is 3.3v (very old), it won't fit new mobo which accepts 1.5v.

Forget Sempron. Go for Athlon XP 2500+. Mobo would be any nForce2 chipset: ASUS A7N8X-whatever, Abit NF7-S V2, DFI NF2 Infinity, etc. etc.
