are the msi k8v neo boards good. i want a nforce 4 but not to fussed as long as its 939 and supports higher ram - if needed in future.
There are 2 models
DFI Ultra D £108.69
DFI Lanparty UT NF4 SLI D £129.19
What i've read is that the only difference is the SLI, and that there is a easy mod that can be done with a 2B pencil that makes the Ultra D to a Ultra SLI
Theres also an Asus A8N-SLi £96.94
I prefer the DFI as it allows better overclocking options like 4v vdimm, so if you can get your hand on some good bh5 sticks or some the new winbond UTT, you could be getting 250 @ 2-2-2-5 1T on about 3.3v, some people have been able to get upto 270 on 3.7v.
If your not planning on overclocking then go for Asus, but at the end of the day theres only about £12 difference.
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum £89.89
This is very good NF3 board which has AGP, if you don't fancy upgrading your card. To performance between a good NF3 board & a NF4 board is not huge.
