The two boards I can find that fit these criteria are both 800MHz and about the same price: VIA EPIA SP8000 $205 https://www.iboxpc.com/shopping/product.php?productid=200&cat=22&page=1 iGoLogic MBI3368G-iE Celeron $215 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813202002 The iGo board has Gigabit ether which might be helpful as I'm running this box diskless off my fileserver. Any opinions? Or should I punt and get some new mobo with new RAM formfactor for better performance? Other suggestions? Thanks.
