OK, the following from www.newegg.com should work great. I haven't tried
the video card, but have used the other components to build two systems
recently. So I can confirm that the following components will work very
well, even for gaming. I threw a halfway decent video card into the mix,
because I strongly suspect that the video card that is in the celery 300A
system will NOT be compatible with any P4 class mainboard. (if it's AGP or
AGP 2X, it won't work. If it's older AGP4X it still might not work) -Dave
