I own an xp3000 400fsb, and I would like to know which official 400fsb board is best for overclocking my new baby. Thanks for your input.

8rda+ rev2.x or nf7 rev2.0 Newegg is shipping both of these.
I think the 8rda+ is just as good and quite a bit cheaper. I just got my 4th nf7 yesterday and of course it's dead already.. never had a problem with an 8rda and i am on my 5th, it's a 2.0 from Newegg. I have been way harder on the 8rdas too.

I've heard some bad thing on the 8rda3+. Didnt OC very well from anandtech.com. And Still has a passive NB heatsink...

Any owners of the 8rda3+ want to refute?

I just built a system for my buddy with the 8rda+ (he doesnt OC) and so far so good. Epox seems to make nice boards. I WANT THE BEST, THOUGH!
