Until I build another system, I was thinking of getting a better mobo for my P3-733 CuMin. I'm using a Soyo 6vba(KT133a chipset) now .It doesnt have bus mastering and I know theres better boards which should be cheap now.
Any ideas?

These boards are in demand and not cheap however.

Since the 733 is a Coppermine, you could also use the older CUSL2-C (basically the same m/b as Bill has suggested, but without Tualatin support). Sounds like you want to stay away from Via chipsets, so the 815 chipset is pretty well your best bet for 133MHz FSB socket 370 processors. Other manufacturers also made m/b's based on that chipset, so you could look for one of those as well.

Provided your video card could handle the 89MHz AGP bus, then your best bet would be a 440BX socket 370 board with the mendochino/coppermine pinout. It would achive the best memory bandwidth out of all the chipsets for that particular processor, and is extremely reliable.
