You need to specify what you are going to do with you new toy.

Define PCI,APG,ISA bus/slot quantity.
Is onboard RAID important.
Is onboard SCSI important.
Is it going to be a server/workstation/gaming thingy/etc...........

All of these points will quickly limit your choices.

If the above is DGD (Don't Give a Damn), then throw darts at vendors.
