What is the best motherboard out there for the price? I don't want to spend too much as long as it supports Pentium 4 Processors and has Dual-Channel etc.

How much is too much? There are a lot of good intel mobo's, just depends on how much your looking to spend.
Give us a price range.

The reviews seem good on it. I do like how it has space by the AGP slot for a vid card with a large heatsink. May even want to look at this...

We have one of these in our office, it's been rock solid so far, but one guy said his north bridge hs and fan fell off, I've never had this problem tho.

Yeah, that's the first one I posted, that one rocks, but it's a tad more than what he wants to spend.

How about the Gigayte 8I875 GT Series or the 8I875 Ultra GT Series.
Both of these boards are fab boards.

Deity_Me, the one i posted was a P4P800-E Deluxe, and it was only $126. Is that a new motherboard or what? Just curious, there are only 7 reviews(5-Star).
and cyberlantz, which motherboard do you think is the best for *gaming* and perhaps overclocking?

I've just built my own PC and used a Chintech CT-9PJL MB. It has all of the features of the above mentioned and more. Duel Ram (4 slots up to 4mb), Hyperthread P4 Compatability. Raid compatability. 5 PCI slots and a superb C-media sound system on board. The software and Bios are very forgiving but at the same time powerfull. Ideal if your over clocking or you just want a stable system.

I agree ScottyB
Voted NO 1 Board late last year, in the high perfomance stakes.
Now that is a board to get, but the price of the thing is allong the lines of the abit ic7-max3.
