    Any *AGP* Amd64 X2 MBs out yet?

    So if you had to pick - MSI or DFI - which one for a 4400?

    Actually, I thought that latency does more for the A64's than raw speed. Meaning, low latency 1:1 is often better then 1:1 higher FSB but higher latency. This is not true with Intel chips where FSB seems to matter more (well, save on the new 1066 models)

    Given most people can hit 2600 or 2700 with their X2's quite easily, what is the best ram to pair with that? TCCD or TCC5 I assume? Any recs? I know I will want to be 1:1 at the lowest timings possible. So any ram with TCC5 or TCCD what supports DDR400 2-2-2-5 shoudl do?

    Thanks Tankguy, If you can get the DFI NF3 Ultra let us know and I will place a pre-order (4400 x2) and when it shows up it shows up. You have been extremely helpful. Best

    Any comparisons of the 4200 and 48 or 4400?? I wonder if the 1meg cache will make MORe of a difference with the dual core .... Tankguy - can you get the NF3 DFI Ultra (new) Steve

    Thanks!!! The NF3/AGP+X2 seems like a great upgrade. How much have you overclocked? What memory speed do yo uhave the 2Gb at (1T or 2t)??? Where did you get the combo?

    I just saw you have an X2 and a DFI NF3 Ultra - the new motherboard. How is it working? How do you like the DFI NF3 ultra? Where did you get your X2 from? Did you have to flash the bios. I am sure alot of people with hihg-end AGP cards (6800 Ultra for me) would love to know thanks

    CAn you tell us more about rhe DFI NFORCE3 ultra board? Are the SATA ports locked? What CPU are you using? Does it support X2 out of the box? Let us know - who did you get it from?

    Tankguy - thanks for all the info. I checked the AMD website and the ONLY support motherboard with AGP support is the ASUS VIA 800 PRo one. I cannot believe this - some other AGP boards like NFORCE3 must be able to support this. Given that most people have expensive AGP video cards...

    Have any of the Nforce3 board makers announced support? I really want to stick wtih AGP and of course none of the NF4 boards support it. Thanks TankGuys for all the help - if you can find me a board I will place my pre-order. Steve
