Hey, I've been feeling nostalgic and am trying to build up an old 754 machine for a lil' retro overclocking. Unfortunately, the Gigabyte K8N pro board I bought off craiglist appears to be dead. :shadedshu

I'm interested to see what you guys got lying around (and I know many of you do!). Ideally, I'd like to see a LanParty UT NF3, but I'm not going to hold my breath. And, (this may sound odd), but I prefer AGP over PCIe (more old skool, + I already bought an AGP card :p ). Also, nForce chipset is preferred over Via chipset. Remember, overclocking will be important, so OEM mATX boards (and the like) are out, lol.

Heat / eBay feedback are in my sig, and shipping will be to Texas.

Nice stuff, guys. But I'm really only interested in ATX boards at this time. As for the RAM, ideally I'd like to find 1GB sticks of DDR1 (at least PC3200 with not horrible timings).
