hi, just bought a new computer with Athlon II Quad 620 & Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H. now, I still have an option to change MB to one of the following:
Asus M4A785D-M PRO
Asus MDA78TD-V EVO
Gigabyte MA785G-UD3H
Gigabyte MA785GMT-UD2H

what do you think? should I change to one of the above? would there be a difference should I go and overclock?
thanks

I would look at the manuals for the boards to see what OC'ing options you get with them. (Both manufacturers have on-line manuals you can download.) The one that is often missing is cpuNB control, both multiplier and voltage, so if possible get a board that includes those cpuNB options in BIOS ...
 
i dont know about its overclocking ability, but the 785G chipset is according to AMD the best chipset for a Athlon II, but i dont know if that applies to overclocking or not...
 
thanks guys.
to QuietIce: I looked at manuals, and all Gigabyte boards has cpuNB control. don't see much of difference between them. guess I'll just stick with the original offer.
to TheQuadFather: all boards metioned are 785g, but thanks anyway.
