Hello, what's the best DDR Athlon board for speed, stability, and overclocking?

I am considering either the EPOX EP-8k7a+ or the Gigabyte GA-7XDR.

I've seen two review where both boards were put head-to-head, can't remember where tho.
In one review the gigabyte won and in the other the EPOX did, that's pretty strange.

Are there any other good DDR boards beside these two?

How good is that new ABIT kg7-RAiD board?

The performance between the 8k7a and the 8k7a+ is exactly the same right?
 
The only difference between the 8K7A and the 8K7A+ is the inclusion of a RAID controller on the 8K7A+. Other than that they are totally identical in terms of EVERYTHING.

The EPoX board is far superior on the overclocking side of things.

Well I dont know how good it is but it appears to have minor problems with memory configurations.. theres a report of the front of overclockers.com about it
 
Abit have not given a very good showing on the DDR front. I think that their only hopes will lie with the introduction of the Crush based boards soon.
 
What does everyone think of the Asus A7M ???

Just got mine and hooked it up, time to play, however, clovk multipliers are not adjustable through bios. Any suggestions???
