Broke a resistor trying to accomplish voltage mod. I could not boot windows above 1.5GHz watercooled at 1.85 volts, so I needed the voltage mod on my AXIA y- 1.33 chip. Anyways, the mobo is shot and I'm in the market right now for a DDR mobo. Please recommend a good overclocking mobo w/DDR, preferrably one with good voltage/features. I would really like an nforce, but can't wait. THANKS.

No biters, noone has an opinion or experiences to give on a good DDR board??
 
How bout the Epox 8K7A, any good, any bad on it? Anyone?
 
Yea m8,
had the Iwill ka myself, got rid cos it was shite ! now runnin epox 8-ep-8ka7+ , superb board and totally stable runnin at 1557 np at all.

8k7a+t/bird 1.4@1557mhz

The epox 8k7a comes w/ 2.25 vcore w/out a vmod. I got mine for $125 and is a great board.

Sorry to hear the bad news Geo. There still may be hope for your board. Did you just lop off one resistor? I knocked off a resistor on my A7V but I was able to solder it back on and everything works now. If you would like I can offer to take a look at your board and see If I can fix it up. If not what do you want for the old board, even if it isn't repairable I can still use some smd resistors off of it. I always wondered were dead motherboards and CPUs go after they die. Yup it is down, but its not hot, its my basement.
