-Amd Athlon 1800+ @ 2035mhz
-Thermaltake slk 700

As far as AMD goes the Abit NF7 series is king. However, make sure you get memory to match the motherboard... something that would work well at 200MHz FSB in dual channel should be your criteria

Make certain you obtain an NF7 v2.0. They are made to run at higher fsb speeds. With 400 being the standard.

To help your high fsb endeavours. Do the L12 mod. It may also help to get a AIUHB 2100+ or one of the DLT3C 1700 or 1800's.
