i845D

I have the msi board and I love it. There are NO stability issues with it. The ONLY time I've crashed was because I overclocked my radeon WAY too high.

Definately get an Intel chipset.

I cannot speak for the Intel chipset, but I had a 1.8GHz p4 humming along at 2.4 with the SiS chipset on a Asus board.

If you can wait go for the 533.

shant,
