What 939 Board (I was waiting for DFI)

[grand_witch]

I was going to get the new DFI board but I cannot wait any longer as my current board has turned its toes up. Can someone please suggest a board.

I contacted a number of retailers and they said it would not be around until the end of next month!!!!!!!

The board needs to be SLI and have reasonable onboard sound.

[eek]

My MSI platinium is rather nice. Northbridge fan is a bit noisy unless you turn it down tho (a zalman fanmate is now doing that rather).

[Spunkey]

the other alternative is the Asus A8N-SLi

I have now narrowed it down to the MSI K8N SLI Platinum PCI-E or the Asus what would people say?

I've got an Asus Sli machine indoors and now the bios releses have sorted the teething troubles that were inititially a little annoying it's running fine so i'd recommend it

Does anyone think its worth goign for the DFI? or is it best to just go for the Asus?

[EvilMunky]

From what i understand the DFI board kicks ass - big time.

Thats what im gonna base my new build around.

Lots of good reviews out there.

Can anyone recommend a dirt cheap 939 motherboard with PCIExpress :/

Sorry for the thread hijack but it is slightly on topic

Go with the DFI if you can m8, mine r0x0rs, it got 8.1 sound like every other, acceptable quality but can't tell accurately since my speaker s*cks

If your gonna be OC'ing go for the DFI, if not the ASUS is probably the best bet.

Well its done I have just orderred a 3500 939 and the DFI SLI-D . Cheers BUFF.
