Normally, I use gigabyte motherboards, they've always been reliable. However, they have stopped making boards with onboard IDE RAID for a P4 processor.

So what I need is some suggestions/model numbers of some boards that will support:

p4 Prescott processor
duel channel ram(3-4 gigs)
onboard ide raid
sata capabilities would be nice, but not required
no onboard video/ atleast has an 8x agp port

uhh...thats about all i can think of.

asus, msi, soho, any manufature you can think of, trying to keep the board under the cost of 200 bucks as well.

Prescott is the name of the core in the Pentium 4. Most, if all, of the P4s have either Prescott or Northwood.
