Alright you OCing pros. I need some pros (and cons) to help me decide on a mobo to run with my new 1800XP,
I want to keep the price to about $100 or less.
Raid is not important, sound is not too important, but cpu upgradability is important (perhaps someday I'll put in an XP2500)or .
I was all set to buy an 8rda+ but heard (thru this forum) that they are being discountinued.
Should I get either an 8rga+ ($103) or an 8rda3+ ($110)?
Can anyone suggest one of these boards over the other?
Or, since there's a good knowledge and a large written database in these forums, should I try to find an 8rda+ somewhere ($87) and go with it before they run out of stock?
Then, there's a strong number of members who say the Abit NF7 is the way to go. I don't need raid or a super sound card so geting the NF7-s would be over kill for me.
Lot's of choices, which one should I order?
