Asus have developed alot of products in recent times and are mainly famous for their huge line of motherboards. Asus are also very well known for their rock solid reliable products. An Asus socket A motherboard will consist of an nforce 2 chipset that supports upto pc3200 memory. These chipsets will have support for RAID and sata connections for fast read/write hard drives. The kind of processor that will be needed with these motherboards would be an Athlon XP. Asus socket a boards are becoming rare to find as they are quite old technology now. But many pc users still use these boards and there is no reason why anyone looking to build a new pc should be put off going with a slightly older and more dated motherboard. I'ts not always about getting the latest and greatest. You can in most circumstances do everything with these motherboards that you can do with the newer faster motherboards on the market. You're only drawback is these type of older motherboards do not have support for pci express. The video expansion slot will be an AGP slot, however AGP isn't all that slower than pci express anyway. Regardless, an Asus socket a motherboard will be a great purchase and should meet all your expectations.
