PCI Devices - best chipsets / products

[lmartinefc]

Hi all...I have recently completed a new build, spec as follows :

Dual Tualatin motherboard
2 x Pentium III-S 1400 1.4Ghz Tualatin processors
4gb Crucial Ballistix DDR PC4000 RAM
7950 GT AGP 512mb graphics card (may swap out for Gainward 7800 GS GLH)
160gb Western Digital ATA 100

I would like to add the following :

PCI Wifi adapter
PCI USB 2.0 controller
PCI SATA controller (change the IDE drive for a a sata SSD - for silence and reliability)

What are the best chipsets for the above / recommended products? There are alot of 'Hong Kong specials' going cheap on ebay

Any input welcome...

USB 2.0 (NEC chipset and low profile capacitors)

USB SATA (Silicon image controller)

Or there is this card that has SATA and USB 2.0 all in one with a via chipset?

I will happily buy 3 seperate cards - bit unsure about buying 1 card to handle USB and SATA ?

There is also a 4 port silicon image card for USB 2.0

Really need some input on a nice fast reliable PCI wifi card

As you can tell I like black PCB boards (as the mobo, RAM, GPU, PSU, case is all black - along with the cpu coolers and case fans)
