What motherboard do you guys recommend to get if I'm gonna get a 2100+ and overclock it? I was thinking of a7n8x deluxe or 8rda+. What do you guys think? and what have you been running?

Well this question has been asked about 3,593,837,032 times so you can use the "search" funciton or probably just look at a thread one or two spots below. Some people are partial to the Asus board, and some are partial to the Epox. Personally I like the Epox because I don't need all the 'deluxe' features on the Asus board.

if you want features and don't mind the extra cost, get the a7n8x deluxe
if you are on a budget. get the 8rda+

Nexfan had rounded IDE cables for 2.50 each.... Unfortunately I checked a couple days ago, and the prices are up to about $6 a piece. Still cheaper than most places tho.

Epox 8RDA+ $99 at mwave, but the Abit NF7-S looks pretty sweet (version 1.2) at $125.

Either one is excellent. Personally I like the A7N8X (deluxe) better... Comes feature packed and tons of extras. You can get one online around $140 right now too :)

I paid $189 at a local retailer for mine :(
