As Felix already has pointed out  a few times, you are bound to have 
problems with the USB. Could work, but there it well could be it won't 
work at all.

Intel 3.2 Ghz Prescott prices are down too.

That's why  last  month I (relunctently) moved to an intel based mobo. 
Sad to say, but it is like that: the move away from Epox 8RDA+ was 
moving from USB hell to USB heaven.

I have a Gigabite mobo now with  excellent a scsi support (my system is 
all scsi). When I put a bootable CD into the scsi CD-drive, the system 
boots from CD just like that. I don't have to go into the mobo bios nor 
the scsi-card bios. Heaven on Earth. :-)
