Soak test it properly, because I had a bit of trouble with the memory
controller on my first mobo. Swapping in a new one did the
trick. Since then, it's been rock solid. If you've got the cash to
spare, built in SCSI and ethernet make a lot of sense. And make sure
your PSU is up to scratch, too.

Cheers,

Simon
