A good P4 chipset?
Im planning on selling my VIA/Athlon setup and build me a P4 system. I want to go for the P4 1. 6 GHz Northwood, it can easily be taken to 2. 2 GHz and stable. The problem now is the motherboard, I'm really in a dilema.

I don't need RAID or ATA133, just normal ATA100 and USB. USB 2.0 would be nice, sound or LAN onboard doesnt matter.
Any suggestions anyone?

That's a good question.
Are there any scores over at madonion.com (spit, still hate that place) taken with more or less default hardware, ie no overclocking at all?
I'd love to see how these systems face up to each other where people are not trying to up their score by another 10 by blowing accross the HSF during tests or using yet another revision of NVidia drivers.
