    Skt754 £50-60 which motherboard?

    Hi guys need a motherboard replacement for a skt 754 CPU. So any recomendation in the price range is welcome, i suppose a fiver over won't hurt but ideally as cheaply as possible. It should be nforce3/k8t800pro and should be a overclocking one.
    Thanks

    Righty mate

    Get yourself a KV8 Pro motherboard with the 3rd eye overclcoking display! There about £63 online, and its great for overclocking... or you could sell your chip and go 939?

    Write ok i have narrowed down to the following.

    Gigabyte K8NS, EPoX EP-8KDA3J and ABIT K8VPRO
    gigabyte is the cheapest by £10 by all of them.

    So which one has the best ocing capablities(2nd prior), the most stable(1st prior) and features (3rd prior)?
    Thanks

    Stay away from the Epox ones mate, ive heard bad things..

    Chris

    Best OCing capabilites is the ABIT board by far. I had a Gigabyte that blew up once when I overclocked it!
