Hmm, So THAT'S what that means.....I had no clue what was going on there, Looks like I'm back to newegg to find a new mobo. I want to stick with ATI because thats what I've had in the past and I've gotten great perfomance from them.

So I've done a little searching and found this mobo
Here
As far as I can tell it will go with the CPU, Graphics card, and everything else. And I'm guessing it will allow me to get much better graphics if/when I upgrade the system.

I'm not too concerned about the money since its still under $100.

Well, I've gone ahead and ordered everything except the moniter (I have access to a cheap one to make sure the system works). Good luck to me on getting everything together correctly.
