Recently I've been asked to come up with the a very low cost and good performing system. I didn't bother trying to explain that these two things are largely diametrically opposed and foolishly took on the challenge.
So, I figured the way to go is AMD, it's cheap and the Durons have some serious muscle for the price. Then I came to motherboards, which is where I'm stuck. I need to find a motherboard, which will hopefully have pc2100 support, if it doesn't pc133 is fine, it would be nice to have DDR, since in local shops it's only a $5 difference between the two memory types at 256MB. Any suggestions, if you know that motherboard has an possible problems, please include those so that I can work around them, I'm aiming for an ATI radeon, geforce MX or a Kyro as a video card.
