AMD A64 S754 mobos.... K8T800 Pro or nForce3 250GB??

Hi guys :)

Some of the UK residents may have read the Custom PC magazine and their readers' drives section. Well I won it and am being featured in the magazine!!! :p

That means I have won 6 prizes from PCW components (not sure what my choice will be yet!) but the last 2 editions have had A64 3200+s and an MSI K8T NEO-FIS2R motherboard.

What I was going to do was sell my Intel system and use these as a basis for a temp A64 system till S939 comes out.

I was going to sell the MSI board as it has no AGP/PCI locks and need one :)

I was thinking along the lines of either: -

K8T800 Pro

• ABIT K8V Pro
  
  nForce3 250GB
• EPoX EP-8KDA3+
• MSI K8N NEO PLATINUM

Any others or suggestions please :)

I hear good things abt the Epox, plus they do make good overclocking boards. Currently tho the Via boards tend to be faster than the n-force.

but the nForce3 250GB has the onboard firewall hmmm....

If only DFI had a lan party version :D

The best one atm is MSI's K8N Neo, but actually there is not much difference between K8T800 PRO and the nForce 3 250Gb, and in benchmarking there is even not much difference between a K8T800 board ( ASUS K8V Deluxe ), only more overclocking options !
