The ULTIMATE motherboard for Athlon XP ?

Hi.. I'm looking to buy some really good motherboard for Athlon XP, so I wanted your opinion. Do you suggest getting a dual system ? Which chipset ? VIA vs NFORCE vs something else ? I need the motherboard for my main DAW... It would be nice to have the firewire interface (but I guess all the newer motherboards do...). Which models should I avoid ?

The right motherboard for the Right job!

I'm looking to build a computer for a home studio. I would like to start with the right motherboard. I currently own a Roland EP70 that I some times plug into my computer using MIDI. The only problem is that if I decide to use a sound that comes with the CW8(cakewalk)I get a delay of about 1.5sec. until the sound comes from the spks.
