Default Cheap mobos

I'm looking for a cheap motherboard (under $40) that has an AGP, supports ATA133, DDR400, and the onboard goodies, for an Intel. Money is an issue right now and I need a board for a side rig I'm putting together.
I was lookin' at this, so if anyone knows something better, please post it...Suggestions are welcome

I would suggest this mobo. I personally use one in another rig and it performs awesome. For 39 bucks you cant beat it. New I paid 100+.

"YOU ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR....YOU WANT A CHEAP MOTHERBOARD? A CHEAP ONE IS WHAT YOU WILL GET" Mow a few lawns then get something that starts with an A.....Like Abit or Asus...Thats my two cents...

Most people here run one of three boards.......

P4 Asus P4C800E Deluxe
Abit IC7 Max3

Amd Abit Nf7-S

And just to help your search They have REFURBS of the P4C800E Deluxe at newegg for 99 bucks cant beat that for cheapos

Well it's not like my primary rig or something, just a folding rig and something a friend can use during a LAN party or whatever...

DW is correct, don't spend money twice when you only need to spend it once.

This is the one I use in my cheapy builds. Works very well and has onboard everything. The only think lacking is your request for ATA133. Its still a good cheap board though and Ive used roughly 10+ of them with NO problems at all. They run like a dream.
